Welcome Virtual Royal Mile Preview Upload

Calling all festival acts…Join The Scotsman, THE festival paper, in a brand new venture this July and August - The Virtual Royal Mile

In this ambitious new project we will aim to preview as many of the vast array of acts and shows as we can that will be descending on Edinburgh this August. Share a preview of your show with our audiences ahead of festival season to inspire those still planning their festival days out and give those unable to make the trip this year, a flavour of all that is going on

To make this a success we are looking to all acts to upload previews of their shows. We are particularly interested in video previews, which we know are very popular with our audience and get great levels of engagement.

Uploading your content is free and easy and can be done using link below.

Simply log into our Your World portal, and follow these simple steps:

  1. Click on "Submit a new article"
  2. Fill in your headline, into and main text previewing your show
  3. Select "The Scotsman" as your site to upload the content
  4. Tick "What's On" as your article category
  5. Add any pictures and videos you want to include
  6. Review and submit

Once done, keep an eye on Scotsman.com to see if your act features.
