The Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society has moved its operations into a permanent space on Infirmary Street, transforming Fringe Central into a year‑round hub for artists, welfare support, rehearsal spaces and industry services. The project, funded by the UK Government and partners, is designed to support a thriving, inclusive fringe ecosystem alongside the city’s galleries and venues.
Disney+ is reviving Blind Date, moving the dating show to streaming with a new host. Maura Higgins, fresh from The Traitors US, will host the 2027 revival, preserving the familiar three-date format behind a wall while promising twists and drama. The series will launch next year.
