Ever wondered what secrets lie in a map? Or wanted to go behind the scenes of a major collection? Do you just love maps?

Join us for the Map Festival, a day dedicated to all things cartographic. Discover the amazing maps and aerial photographs held by:

    Edinburgh City Archives

    Historic Environment Scotland

    National Collection of Aerial Photography

    National Library of Scotland

    National Records of Scotland

    University of Edinburgh

This is a hands-on event for everyone. Get a temporary map tattoo, try map-based games and puzzles, or chill with cartographic crafts and colouring. There will be an opportunity to go behind the scenes to see our maps collection first-hand. Or get a selfie with our trig point.
