Overall Rating

Excellent

Always impressed at the accessibility at the Book Festival - this year is great again! The walkways are easy to navigate - all the theatres are on the level - signage is great - and loos are grand too! A great place to hear from some of your favourite authors or simply to while away an afternoon!

Disabled Access In and Around

Excellent

Ace! Walkways ace. Signage ace. Theatres all look great - we only visited one - the corner theatre - but the layout in there was great and plenty of space. We were in the main Charlotte Square section of the Book Fest - this year they have expanded along George Street but we didn't visit any of those venues.

Parking & Transport

Good

The book festival is easily accessed from Princes Street where there are a multitude of bus stops. Edinburgh Waverly is also off Princes Street and would probably take you around 20-30 mins to get to the book festival from there. Parking wise it's not so great - but there is some in Charlotte Square if you're lucky!

Accessible Toilets

Excellent

Amazing - this is how things should be done!

Staff

Excellent

All very helpful, smiley and friendly.
