Fest Magazine is an Edinburgh-based arts magazine that publishes during the Edinburgh Festival each year. It is a free, bi-weekly, A5 glossy publication distributed through key Festival venues.
History
Fest was established in 2002 as an alternative Edinburgh Festival review guide by then University of Edinburgh students, Dan Lerner and Helen Pidd, now Northern England Editor of The Guardian.[1] The guide started life as a 32-page tabloid newspaper which published three times per week during August. It began with the support of Time Out and in conjunction with a large number of student writers from the University of Edinburgh student newspaper Student.
In 2003, Fest relocated from the basement office at the Pleasance Courtyard venue and began to establish a reputation among Fringe-goersШаблон:Which as a strong youth-oriented, independent arts magazine.Шаблон:Citation-needed Media partnerships were established with The BBC and Big Issue Scotland between 2003 and 2005.
In 2007, Fest adopted an A5 glossy magazine format at 100 pages, and in 2008 launched an accompanying A4 preview magazine distributed before the start of the festival. In 2014 the preview edition became A5 to match the August review editions.
In 2015, Fest was taken into the Radge Media stable of titles, who also publish local culture publication The Skinny Magazine.
