Beltane Fire Festival is a walking festival at sundown on Calton Hill. It is a ticketed event, and date floats each year to reflect start of spring. Starts around 8pm and lasts 5 hours if you stay for the full thing. We did take kids (in pram) the first time - but if you are prudish stay away! lots of naked dancers dressed only in body paint. BBBBrrrrr! dress warm and take a flask (thermos or hip!!)
