Well, it seems tradition that we highlight the free events and activities in the Edinburgh Fringe Festival (you can see our 2008 list here). So here’s our recommendations for free stuff in this year’s festival – the links point to the official Edinburgh Fringe website, where you can read more about each suggestion. Some events are first-come, first-served while others require a reservation so be sure to book where it is required in order to avoid disappointment.

• The 80s Movie Flashback. Find out what’s happened to your favourite 80s stars. Not ticketed, first-come first-served basis.
• The Absolute Best of Absolute Beginners. What I love about comedy like this is that even if it’s cringeworthy it’s still a right laugh. Not ticketed, first-come first-served basis.
• Absolutely Free Live Music. Not sure what the difference is between absolutely free and just free but love Whistlebinkies and the vibe here during the festival is great. Check it out. Not ticketed, first-come first-served basis (but this is a bar, not a venue, so just jump in with the crowd!)
• The Accidental Dog Detective. A film noir puppet show. Not kid friendly. Not ticketed, first-come first-served basis.
• Tom and Brody are So Comedy! A hot item from the Laughing Horse Free Comedy Festival.

For more tips about free Edinburgh Fringe things to do, check out the schedule at The Stand Comedy Club, Laughing Horse Free Comedy website, or PBH’s Free Fringe.

Happy Festivalgoing!
