2019 Festiball

 

Still beneath the towering Arthur’s Seat, the Festiball has finally rested at Peffermill Playing Fields.

No team has really dominated the Festiball so this tournament really is up for grabs – Played over the August Bank Holiday and

right in the middle of the Edinburgh Festival and Fringe, many teams visit our beautiful city and fit in a few of the Festival shows…a word of advice, book your accommodation early!!!

Also book your place in the Festiball early. The popularity of the tournament means early entry is advised. The Edinburgh Festiball is an Adult Slowpitch Co-ed Tournament, with varying standards, now divided into 3 individual Competitions. We are sure you will enjoy your visit and your Softball

We hope that you and your team have a great time at the Edinburgh Festiball. Maps, History and all the latest info can be found right here, including links to that much needed accommodation…
