Feeling the Credit Crunch? Want to enjoy the Fringe but your pocket won’t allow it? With over a hundred free shows during the Festival, you needn’t worry about missing out.

For the first time in Hairline Magazine, we have a section where you can read all about these acts. We will tell you if they are worth the free entrance, or if they should pay you to watch them! We’ll tell you where they are, what they are about and what to look out for.

In ‘Hairline’s Free Fringe’ we will be reviewing as many free shows as we can, so you have as much information at hand as possible.

Don’t despair, as you see, you can still enjoy Edinburgh’s August on a tight budget.
