It’s been a busy August and festival season is still going strong with the fantastic Edinburgh Mela Festival happening this weekend at Leith Links on the 29th and 30th August…

It is a big and bright festival which brings us lots of dancing, world music, a global food village and of course the Mela kidzone…

Children of all ages are set to ‘go bananas’ at this year’s Mela Kidzone inspired by the monkey gods of Asia.

The dedicated Kidzone has a host of fantastic interactive dance workshops, arts and crafts activities and live performances – perfect entertainment for your little monkeys.

Children under 12 go free to the Mela… if you get your adult tickets early its £4 otherwise its £5 on the day…

Saturday and Sunday noon – 9pm…
