Summary
Edinburgh TV Festival 2026 is heating up with headline acts Gary Lineker and Amelia Dimoldenberg set to electrify opening day. Dimoldenberg spills on a decade of creative evolution—from directing to scripted comedy and her new show Passenger Princess—while expanding her Dimz Inc. Academy to empower young creatives. Lineker, meanwhile, showcases his booming podcast empire Goalhanger, whose hit show The Rest is Football dominates Netflix with over 750 million streams, and announces a new creator fund to back six rising talents with up to £10K each. The festival also tackles big industry shifts: the rise of visual podcasts, celebrity documentaries, and the global content rush—all unfolding at the Edinburgh International Conference Centre.
