The Edinburgh Mela was founded in 1995 by members of the city's minority ethnic communities. The first festival was held in Meadowbank Stadium and quickly grew to attract 20,000 people each year. It was the first Mela in Scotland and has gained a strong reputation in the UK.
In 2000 the festival moved to Pilrig Park and in recent years has drawn large numbers of people over the weekend.
