Title
Edinburgh in August 2021, Covid Year 2
Description
Even with most Covid restrictions lifted, it’s still a very different Edinburgh in August 2021. The Tattoo cancelled for the second year and the Usher Hall remains in use as a Covid test centre. Edinburgh’s festivals have moved to hybrid online and in-person delivery. Many performances were held in specially constructed venues for example, Old College Quad, and some are taking place in the open-air on Silverknowes beach and in Holyrood Park.
