Total number of events across the Fringe, EIF and Book festivals: 59,263
The cheapest? The 697 free shows. A further 260 are pay-what-you-want.
The most expensive? You'd think it would be the top seats at the big budget EIF shows. But no! On the Fringe you could pay a cool £190 for the one-night Pick of the Fringe at the Sheraton. Hmmmm.
Wondering how the Fringe programme breaks down?
Bring on the Toms! Guess which are the top 10 comics' names of the Fringe...

Celebrate! Who's got a special year?
The Fringe: it's the 70th anniversary...depending on how you count it!
Guy Masterson: it's the one-man theatrical event's 25th Fringe. Same goes for comedians Vladimir McTavish and Jimeoin.
Craig Hill: he's notched up 20…Fringes. Same for Reginald D Hunter. Legends.
Spank!: the legendary late-night comedy and variety night turns 15 this year.
Daniel Sloss: his 10th solo show…but since he's only 27, that's pretty amazing. It's the big 10 for Carl Donnelly and Nick Doody too.
Made in Scotland: the annual showcase of Scottish culture is now into its first decade.
