Quakers at the Edinburgh Fringe

During the Fringe, the Quaker Meeting House becomes Venue 40. Our venue is in the heart of the historic city centre, and our events run throughout the Fringe. The Quaker Festival Committee and Venue 40 staff endeavour to provide a friendly and welcoming venue for our visiting companies, audiences and café customers. Our values of equality, peace, integrity and simplicity influence our theatre programme selection and the way we run the venue.

The venue returns to its normal use as a place of worship on Sundays during the festival. Worship begins at 11:00. We also hold a mid-week worship service on Wednesdays from 12:30 to 13:00. We always welcome visitors.
