ThreeWeeks is a magazine that covers the Edinburgh Festivals in August.[1]

It has covered the Edinburgh Festival since 1996 . It also covered the Brighton Festival from 2006 to 2010, but withdrew due to lack of financial support.[1]

Education Programme

[edit]

ThreeWeeks also operates a media education programme for students and young journalists.[2] These students form the magazine's review team.

This team reviewed approximately 1600 shows at the Edinburgh Festival in 2012[3] and 1,371 in 2013.[4] At that time ThreeWeeks was the second largest reviewer at the Edinburgh Fringe after Broadway Baby but a reduction in its coverage meant that by 2017 it was only the 7th largest.[5]

In Brighton ThreeWeeks published a preview magazine, a daily column in local newspaper The Argus, a daily email newsletter and other online coverage.[3]
