Due to the ongoing COVID-19 Pandemic and the uncertainty as to how the situation will be during August this year, CEO of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Shona McCarthy has announced that the 2020 festival will no longer be going ahead in its original form. In a statement, she said:
“Today's decision that the Fringe will not go ahead as planned was not taken lightly. We have spent the past month listening to a broad cross-section of Fringe participants, as well as to government, healthcare professionals, residents and many more; however, in light of present circumstances it was unavoidable. Public health must and always will come first.”
