As the first acts on the 2025 Edinburgh International Festival (EIF) programme are announced, festival director Nicola Benedetti said “the toughest battle of all” is innovating while at the same time preserving tradition.
The 78th edition of the world-famous performing arts festival has the theme The Truth We Seek, and will invite audiences to examine their relationship with truth through a curated programme of music, dance, theatre and opera.
