Some Twestimonials

"Having advertised my Fringe shows on @edinburghfest before, let me tell you – it works. Never had such a good response on Twitter from any promotion as I did then." Alan Bissett for The Moira Monologues

“I did competitions with @edinburghfest last August. It seemed a fun way to advertise, got a lot of RT’s and helped spread the word about my show. Will do it again this year” @Jo Caulfield

"When it comes to EdFringe promo, @edinburghfest cut through the noise to find lovely, curious ticket-buying souls and lured them into our show's web of delight." Literary Death Match

Your text will be prefaced with the hashtag ‘#advert’ or ‘#ad’. We recommend you include a link for ticket booking, time and dates of your show and venue number, for example:

You can also specify precise start and end times for the competition. Entries are based on use of your specified hashtag, web link or phrase (or a combination of any or all of the three) and will be tweeted out twice per day.
