The Festival was a free entry two day weekend event on the 7th and 8th of June. The meadows in located in the central area in Edinburgh, easy access and next to the Bruntsfield Links. I love going for walks around the meadows as it reminds me of my youth as my high school is local to the meadows.

There was a lot going on at the Festival as they had a number of stalls around the two stage areas. There were scheduled musicians which one even played my all time favourite song by Kanye West- Gold-digger (made my day!). This child friendly festival even has a number of Kids activities for children. Unfortunately the weather took a turn for the worse and started raining heavily 😦 so we ended up going for desert at  favourite 🙂 http://instagram.com/p/o8qUEBjlo7/
