Serviced Apartments Edinburgh Accommodation by ScottishApartment

9-25 August

Snuggle up between the covers – of a best friend? As Groucho Marx said, ‘outside of a dog, a book is a man’s best friend; inside a dog it’s too dark to read.’ Edinburgh International Book Festival (EIBF) gives you the chance to discover writers you will love, meet celebrity authors, keep the kids entertained and chill out in Edinburgh’s West End – in Charlotte Square, the Festival’s prestigious address.

Types of Events You Can Expect

Amazing Programme for Children: dedicated tent and activity corner

• Children’s Workshops, Book Readings & Performances
• Events for Babies
• Meet the Author Events: for both children’s and adult’s books
• Teen-readers’ events, including graphic novels, freedom of speech debates and writing for the big screen.

Adult Readers: get some food for thought!

• Book Readings from Inspiring Writers
• Imprisoned Writers
• Daily Book Signings
• High Profile Panel Discussions & Debates
• Workshops and Discussions on Writing, Illustrating and Publishing as Professions.

Books related to the events are sold independently by the Festival: the profits raised are invested back into the charity’s running. To read your new purchases, why not relax in your own private Edinburgh serviced apartment in Charlotte Square itself, or for more budget Edinburgh Festival accommodation head north to New Town?

Edinburgh International Book Festival events will be confirmed in June 2008. Why not find out about other Edinburgh Cultural events, like the Edinburgh International Film Festival in June?
