The busiest month for festivals here is August, counting each month an event runs in. Months for listings without confirmed dates come from the organiser's usual timing, so treat them as a guide.

What our Edinburgh guide says about those seasons:

Spring (March to May)

Periodo ideale per le passeggiate in collina e i giardini, prima della folla estiva.

Summer (June to August)

I giorni più lunghi e i festival più grandi. Prenotare camere e biglietti con largo anticipo per agosto.

Autumn (September to November)

Strade più tranquille a fine festival e buona luce per lo skyline della Old Town.
