Caravanserai is the Fringe’s community hub, with theatre spaces, bars, eateries and places for families to safely hang out. There’s a stage called Fringe City for shows to showcase a flavour of their work.
And it’s all (or mostly) built from bits of old caravans (and a lot more) into a living work of art (with decent toilets).
You can find all the shows and happenings at Caravaserai here.
