Fringe 2025 – The Stand pops up at W Edinburgh
This August, the five-star W Edinburgh announces it is officially partnering with The Stand, one of Edinburgh's most iconic comedy venues, as part of the Fringe.
The exclusive partnership will bring live Fringe Festival performances to the W Edinburgh's Studio Suites which will transform into an intimate Fringe stage hosting a 70-minute live comedy showcase every Friday and Saturday at 7.30pm, until 23rd August.
Comedy-lovers are in for big laughs, unforgettable acts, and a powerhouse line-up of comedy talent, such as BBC Scotland's Mark Nelson, The Guilty Feminist co-host Jessica Fostekew and The Chase's Paul Sinha – all packed into a high-energy 70-minute showcase in the buzzing heart of St James Quarter.
For locals after a fresh Fringe fix, or festival-goers seeking comedy with flair, this is the ultimate backstage pass to laughs with a luxury twist. Featuring the city's buzziest names, cult favourites and Fringe legends, the vibe comes alive as W Edinburgh delivers the funny in the signature W setting.
Tickets are available now for £20 via The Stand's official Fringe site
