Previously known as the Imaginate festival, the Edinburgh International Children’s Festival is jam packed once again this year with a fantastic programme of Children’s theatre.

The programme includes a fab sounding opening weekend event at the National Museum with two days of free pop-up performances and arts activities throughout the building. Drop in activities will include: live music, walk-about performances, arts activities and storytelling…26th and 27th May

Performances vary in suitability for all ages, from 0 – 15 years old so there really should be something for everyone, check out what’s on here …I’m particularly delighted that the brilliant The Road That Wasn’t There from last year’s fringe is coming back – we absolutely loved it – captivating and imaginative storytelling and puppetry by some super talented folk !!!
