Some of us prepared for the Fringe in advance, with tightly arranged schedules and impressive calendering systems. Some of us, let's face it, did not.
That second group of us (the proudly disorganized) tend to find ourselves sitting in an Edinburgh pub, mid-August, well-aware that there are shows happening all around us, but unsure where to go. Drowning our sorrows in sticky toffee pudding only takes us so far.
So: try edfest.org, the Fringe Finder site. See what's happending, and when, and where. It's an unofficial, volunteer project (aka "me"), intended to make it just a bit easier to figure out where to go next.
The data powering this site is provided by Edinburgh Festivals Listings API. Bless their organized hearts.
