How to be in the audience for our Edinburgh Festival shows

Step 1: Apply for tickets

Tickets for BBC shows at the Edinburgh Festivals are being allocated by random draw, so when we receive your ticket request your details are added to the list of applicants.

Applications are accepted until the publicised closing date/time.

Step 2: Receive a message

Once the random draw has closed all eligible requests are entered into the random draw. If successful, we notify you by text message and send your e-ticket(s) to your email address.

If unsuccessful you will be kept on the waiting list in case anyone cancels their tickets.

You will receive tickets for a maximum of four BBC shows at this year's Festivals.

Step 3: Bring your tickets and ID

We do our best to get the numbers right, but unfortunately we occasionally have to disappoint people. Remember that every guest must bring original approved photo ID.

Sorry this show's full

We have now stopped taking ticket requests for this show, but all unsuccessful applicants will be kept on the waiting list in case we're able to release any additional tickets. Make sure you've joined our mailing list and are following us on our social channels to be notified when new shows become available!
