Edinburgh Festival of the Sacred Arts

Organizer of Sacred Arts Festival 2025

The Edinburgh Festival of the Sacred Arts takes place each year in the middle week of the Edinburgh Fringe. Now in its 7th year, the Festival is an initiative of the Edinburgh Sacred Arts Foundation which exists to support, encourage and stimulate artistic activity that draws on the rich Christian inheritance in the arts. The Christian religion has stimulated a vast wealth of music, painting, poetry, drama, sculpture and architecture, as well as tapestry, embroidery and floral art. Using many of Edinburgh’s finest churches as venues, this annual Festival aims to offer residents and visitors an unusual programme of recitals, exhibitions, tours, screenings and performances. They all draw on this great inheritance, and at the same time enable the sacred arts to make a significant contribution to the cultural life of Edinburgh during its summer festivals.
