Graham Norton is making a triumphant return to Virgin Radio for a one-off Sunday special, and Virgin Red members can be part of it. Broadcasting live from Virgin Hotels Edinburgh on Sunday 24 August, this intimate event promises to be a highlight of the Edinburgh’s Fringe Festival’s final weekend.
From 10am to 1pm, Graham will step back into his beloved mid-morning slot, hosting a very special show from the vibrant Commons Club Bar. Expect his signature wit and warmth, surprise celebrity guests, and a lively atmosphere to match the energy of the Fringe Festival in full swing.
Graham Norton shared his excitement saying, “I'm so looking forward to catching up with all the Virgin listeners and thrilled that we are going to be celebrating the legendary Edinburgh festival from the heart of the city. The whole thing feels like an end of summer treat!”
