ABOUT THE FESTIVAL
The Scotland International Burlesque Festival launched in 2018 as an extension of the legendary London Burlesque Festival which ran for 14 consecutive years (2007-2020). The SIBF ran in both Summer & Winter of that year, showcasing dozens of local, national and international artists in the genre. Although very well received having drawn over 1200 spectators, the festival was always meant to run as a one off event. Fast forward 7 years, and the demand for a truly International Burlesque Festival of epic proportions in Scotland has never been greater. The Edinburgh Festival Fringe is the perfect backdrop for the Scotland International Burlesque Festival and with the experience and expertise brought forward by Majestic Fringe International, there’s no better producer for the role. The SIBF 2025 will showcase all genres of Burlesque, from Classic Strip Tease, Comedic Parody Acts, Alternative Circus, Vaudeville Variety and so much more. There’s a little something for everyone at this year’s Festival so book up quick and be a part of the excitement!
