ACTIVITIES
As well as workshops and shows we have a few other fun festival events taking place we think you'll love!
Late Night Jams
Join us in Monkey Barrel from 11:15pm on Friday and Saturday night (6th and 7th March) and jam!
​
Stick your name in the bucket and jump on stage when your name is called. Perform scenes and practice all the techniques you learned that day in workshops.
​
They're fun. They're loud. They're memorable!
​
They're also free entry! And there's a bar!
Opening Night Social
Get to Edinburgh on the Thursday? After The First Beat join us in The Barrel Bar at Monkey Barrel where we'll be having an informal get together. Say hello. Meet new faces. Get ready for the weekend ahead!
​
If you haven't already - grab a ticket to The First Beat where we'll be kicking off the festival with an incredible line-up of improvisers, all hosted by the hilarious MC Hammersmith.
End of Festival Ceilidh
Once the final show of the festival is over - the party begins!
​
We'll be taking over MB3 with a live ceilidh band. Get free entry with your Performer Wristband or show us any ticket to an EIIF 2026 event.
​
Don't know the moves? Don't worry! We'll talk you through the dances, and if all else fails grab one of the nearest Scots as a dance partner. They'll keep you right.
​
It's a lot of twirling. It's a lot of spinning. It's a lot of fun!
