The Edinburgh International Festival is a festival of performing arts that takes place in the city of Edinburgh, Scotland over three weeks at the end of August. The International Festival invites top class performers of opera, theatre, music (especially classical music) and dance from around the world to perform.

A number of other festivals take place in Edinburgh at the same time, most notably the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, which started as an offshoot of the International Festival and has since outgrown it. See Edinburgh Festival for detals of the other festivals.

The first International Festival took place in 1947.
