The Twestival concept began as a one-off meetup in London in September. It was a huge success and the concept has now spread worldwide, and Twitter users across the globe will be meeting up on 12 February and raising some money for charity: water.

The Edinburgh event will take place at Hawke and Hunter, 12 Picardy Place, Edinburgh. Tickets are £7 and all proceeds will go to charity: water. It promises to be a great opportunity to put faces to avatars, with the promise of live music and a raffle and auction with some rather tempting prizes. I will be there. Be quick if you want a ticket though — they seem to be selling quickly. You can buy your tickets here.

For more information, check out the Edinburgh Twestival webpage. You can also follow EdTwestival on Twitter and keep up with the event page on Facebook.
