Featuring circus from renowned aerial artist Sarah Bebe Holmes, an all day musical line-up from Vision Mechanics Great Junction Street neighbours Sketchy Beats with the best of Edinburgh alternative tunes, an aerial walk in the woods from Lucy Power, puppetry caravans and local food and drink, Vision Mechanics’ Midsummer Fest is all things Leith - in the woods!
