One of the most important policies of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe is that the organizers do not need to approve the performances. To participate in the festival, an artist only needs to find a venue that will host their show. This rule has two effects. First, there are many unusual performances. Second, the festival can offer more than 3,000 different shows every year. Since there are so many shows taking place at the same time, the choice of venues also becomes very interesting.
愛丁堡藝穗節最重要的原則之一是主辦方不需要批准演出。要參加這個節慶，藝術家只需要找到一個願意供他們表演的場地就好。這條規則造成兩個結果。首先，有很多不尋常的表演。其次，此節慶每年有三千多場不同的表演。由於同時進行的演出非常多，場地的選擇也變得很有趣。
