If you’re here for the festival, many of the shows and festivities take place in Edinburgh’s Old Town. This is also where a lot of Edinburgh’s historical sights are, including the Castle and the Royal Mile. The Royal Mile is the busiest street in the city during the festival: you can wander up from Holyrood Palace (at the bottom) to Edinburgh Castle (at the top). As well as tourist shops and cafes, you will see lots of street performers during August. George Square & Bristo Square are other big festival areas, with lots of outdoor bars and food trucks.
