Previous live show: Edinburgh Fringe 2025: Barbara Dickson at The Stand (August 20th, 2-3pm)

It’s Edinburgh’s legendary Stand Comedy Club’s 30th birthday this year, and I'm thrilled to be bringing A Kick Up The Arts to the Fringe for a week of lunchtime live podcast shows as part of their celebrations - including one-hour conversations with special guests Gavin Mitchell (August 18th), Gordon Buchanan (August 19th), Grant Stott (August 21st), Del Amitri’s Justin Currie (August 23rd); and music legend Horse (August 24th) - tickets and more info in Live Events, above!

And yes - on Wednesday August 20th - the one and only! Folk singer, pop star, actor and icon Barbara Dickson reflects on her life and work on stage, and screen - and in music of course - and Barbara will also discuss her choice of a Scottish album, film and book - and what they mean to her….

Come spend a summer festival lunchtime with us! We’d love to see you there. Tickets here.
