More Fringe ticket points

EXTRA collection points for Fringe tickets are to be set up in the wake of the box-office fiasco.

Organisers of the arts festival announced last night that no more postal bookings for shows would be taken.

Instead, anyone booking tickets for a show is being asked to come to the box office personally to pick them up at a later date.

Plans to expand the number of collection points to avoid huge queues forming at the Fringe box office are expected to be unveiled in the next few days.
