Assembly Festival Relocates Amid Fire Chaos | Edinburgh News

Published 2 weeks, 2 days ago
Description

Assembly Festival is relocating its George Street Fringe operations to St. Andrew Square after a Princes Street fire crippled transport, forcing buses onto George Street and canceling their usual street setup. Despite the chaos, all 17 affected shows — including those from the Bijou spiegeltent and Front Room container — will go on, thanks to a massive logistical effort. Indoor George Street performances remain unaffected, and the festival’s artistic director acknowledges the fire’s ripple effects on the city — but the Fringe’s magic is still alive and well.
