In August, the Scottish capital Edinburgh will burst into life with the sounds of music, performers and, above all, laughter. The Edinburgh Fringe Festival is the world-famous cultural gathering that welcomes you for a month packed with comedians eager to try out new routines, gags and sketches, as well as the usual musicians, street-dancers, restaurants, pubs and, yes, more pubs keen to separate you from your loose change.

A trip to the Fringe can be expensive, but not if you're smart enough to book in advance and plan your time there. Many shows are available to buy right now, including our trio of mirth-makers featured in this round-up so, if you're planning to head north of the border with a friend this August, you're going to like this.

The Special Offer is: Buy any ticket to the comedy shows detailed below and GET ANOTHER ONE FREE. How cool is that? Details of the performers and dates are below, all shows take place at the Venue 150 and tickets are very limited, so act now! A small transaction fee is applicable to all purchases.

Jason Byrne

Fast-becoming one of the UK and Ireland's comedy must-sees, the Perrier Award Nominee and Chortle Award-winner previously struck laughter gold with his celebrated "Cirque du Byrne" show. Now he's back with "The People's Puppeteer" - more gags, more props and more irrepressible high-energy madness. The BOGOF offer applies to his shows on 6th and 7th August ONLY. Usual price £17.50 each - offer price £8.50 each. You must buy these tickets in pairs to get the deal.

There are also two preview shows of Jason's available for just £10 per ticket - these shows take place on 1st and 2nd August and are available to buy as singles or as pairs. Click on the Jason Byrne Offer button below to check for availability.

Jimeoin

This Irishman has set his reputation in stone after appearing on TV's Live at the Apollo last year. He is already a few shows into his current UK tour (tickets still available for some shows), but will be gracing Edinburgh with many shows during the Fringe. With his boundless witty enthusiasm for all things surreal, you'll come away chuckling nonetheless. The BOGOF offer applies to his shows on 6th and 7th August ONLY. Usual price £15.50 each - offer price £7.75 each. You must buy these tickets in pairs to get the deal. Click on the Jimeoin Offer button below to check for availability.

Daniel Sloss

Since the tender age of 16, self-deprecating and observational Sloss has been winning over audiences while still being billed as half-man half-Xbox and living at home. Now he's flown the nest and ready to build upon his four previous sold-out Fringe shows. The BOGOF offer applies to his shows on 6th and 7th August ONLY. Usual price £15.50 each - offer price £7.75 each.

You must buy these tickets in pairs to get the deal. Click on the Daniel Sloss Offer button below to check for availability.
