This August will once again see Scotland’s Capital become the centre of the cultural universe - as Edinburgh’s various festivals take over the city.
The biggest is the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, with thousands of shows taking place in every available space, from huge theatres to tiny shipping containers.
And the largest part of the Fringe programme is the comedy section, with the festival long seen as a springboard to stardom by funny men and women.
Of course, much of the humour is very much for adults only, but recent years have seen a growing number of comedy shows targerted at youngsters.
Here are 10 that caught our eye.
9. Best of Kids Comedy: The Big Show!
Another mixed bill show, this one focuses purely on comedy, promising they have "driven their clown car around town and picked up the funniest in family-friendly comedy to make one enormous show". See all the fun at Hoots @ The Apex at 12noon from August 2-26. | Contributed
10. Comedy Club 4 Kids
This show simply takes the traditional comedy club format and tailors it to children - featuring some of the best performers in Edinburgh trying their hand at getting a young audience to chuckle. You might even see a famous face or two from the telly. It's become a firm favourite after numerous years at the Fringe. It's on at the Assembly George Square Gardens' Piccolo venue at 4.25pm from 2-25. There's also plenty of fun stuff, food and drink for youngsters to enjoy in the gardens before and after. | Contributed
