Edinburgh Fringe 2024: Here are 10 musical tribute acts to catch this August - from ABBA to Elvis

If you close your eyes at these shows you might just be able to fool yourself into thinking you are in the presence of a music legend.

It’s nearly time for the Edinburgh Festival Fringe to take over the theatres, gyms, hotels, streets and pubs of Scotland’s Capital.

Taking place from August 2-26 (although there are previews in the days running up to the official launch), there are over 3,500 shows taking place, from comedy and dance, to theatre and spoken word.

There is also a great selection of music on offer - including talented artists delivering sets of songs from some of the famous names in the business.

These tribute acts give you the chance to hear legendary songs from artists who have passed away - or who are simply too big to play anywhere smaller than an enormodome.

Here are 10 of the most eye-catching tribute acts appearing this August.
