limo hire for the 2008 Edinburgh Fringe

It not long to go now, The 2008 Edinburgh Fringe Festival is on between 3rd to the 25th August. So, why not get yourself organised and plan a holiday to Edinburgh to see some of the Festival’s many shows. It is estimated that at the Fringe in 2008, there will be 18,792 performers who will take to the stage, and with some 350 shows absolutely free, you can’t go wrong!

If you’re worried about transportation, why not hire a limo and go to festival in style. Forget about driving the traffic hassles and trying to find a park. With your limousine chauffer you have your designated driver, so you can relax and enjoy yourself and not have to worry about driving if you have a drink or two.

The Fringe story began in 1947, when the Edinburgh International Festival was launched. It was seen as a post-war initiative to re-unite Europe through culture, and was so successful that it inspired more performers than there was room for. Edinburgh is one of the UK's most remarkable cities, which is what makes it such a unique backdrop for the world's largest arts festival; probably contributing to its phenomenal success. In fact, Edinburgh doubles in population in August teeming with people from all across the globe wanting some excitement.

While the Fringe may be about discovering new acts, new writing, and the raw talent of tomorrow's stars, it is also a place where fading stars come to shine a little brighter and household names present themselves in new guises. And, the performances don't end with the thousands of events in the main programme. For every day of the Fringe the Royal Mile is converted into one massive Street Stage hosting every type of Fringe performance. Street artists doing everything from tightrope walking, juggling and fire eating enrapture the ever-present crowds, as do Fringe performers, who take to the streets to perform highlights from their show. The Fringe has come a long way since its organisational beginnings in a disused pub with a leaky roof just off the Royal Mile!

So, come to 2008 Edinburgh Fringe Festival. Soak up the festival atmosphere, relax and enjoy all the festival has to offer. For best deal on a hire limousine contact HireLimos.
