1 FILM EDINBURGH INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL
3 VISUAL ART ARCHITECTURE FRINGE
Opening galas, closing events, retrospectives, premieres and themed strands: it’s the recipe for a perfect film festival and the Edinburgh lot know how to do this kind of thing with their eyes wide shut. Boyz in the Wood kicks things off and Mrs Lowry & Son brings the curtain down. Just before it all gets rolling, there’s a special screening of Toy Story 4 while St Andrew Square Garden again opens its gates to some open-air screenings. See feature, page 21. Various venues, Edinburgh, Wed 19–Sun 30 Jun. With a ‘provocation’ titled ‘In Real Life’, this year’s series of contributor-led projects and events has plenty to say (across the entire nation) about where our built environment is headed. See feature, page 54. Various venues, nationwide, Fri 7–Sun 23 Jun.
