Edinburgh Festival of Cycling
The programmes for the eighth festival are out now. It will run from 31 May to 9 June 2024.
Full details of the programme here.
Sea Rising festival
Porty Energy are holding the Sea Rising Festival on 22 June but they have a crowdfunder running here which you may like to donate to. A spokesperson said: “The festival will include a music stage and stalls near the Seafield end of the Promenade with bike demos and family activities. It will be during the day and there is a full moon that day so we expect a High Spring Tide (so if you are performing you may have the waves lapping at your ankles and the audience will be in the Sea at some point).”
The organisers are looking for musicians and performers.

Consultation on designs for St Margaret’s Park bowling greens
The Thriving Green Spaces team at The City of Edinburgh Council are currently developing proposals for unused Bowling Greens in parks throughout the city. This includes St Margaret’s Park’s bowling green.
The team has delivered several consultation sessions. Drawing from this feedback, the council have developed several ideas for ways these spaces could be improved and re-integrated back into the park. The landscape architects have visually developed these ideas further, and at this stage the council is asking for feedback on these ideas to help refine future proposals.
The re-opening and improvements of these spaces will provide significant value to the local community, benefitting people who live in or work in the area, as well as those travelling through.
