Taxi to Edinburgh International Festival – Kay’s Cabs
Planning a visit to the Edinburgh International Festival? Travel in comfort with Kay’s Cabs — your reliable, pre-booked private hire taxi service for EIF venues across the city.
Whether you’re heading to The Hub, Usher Hall, Festival Theatre, Queen’s Hall or the Edinburgh Playhouse, we’ll get you there smoothly and on time — without the stress of busy streets, diversions, or post-show queues.
Festival-ready private hire, pre-booked only
EIF weeks are brilliant… and chaotic. Roads change, crowds surge, and getting a taxi after a performance can be a lottery.
Kay’s Cabs is pre-booked private hire only, which means your pickup is planned in advance and managed properly — ideal for late shows, early starts, and tight schedules.

• Drivers used to city-centre closures and festival traffic
• Late-night collections after the final curtain
• Options for groups (6 and 8 seater vehicles available)
