Dear lieuliau,

By 17 chars, do you mean that it is 17 letters long? (as opposed to 17
cleaning ladies or 17 participants.)

If so, I have the answer.

Yes, It is 17 letters long. I think the answer is what myoarin-ga said.

I expect that the answer is the "Edinburgh Festival".

The problem is that one site, claiming to be "the official online
listing", speaks of "Festivals"
http://www.edinburghfestivals.co.uk/

and another, which looks like the official site, calls it the
"Edinburgh International Festival".
http://www.eif.co.uk/

Wikipedia recognizes that the whole show is made up of different
festivals, but accepts that they all come together under the title
"Edinburgh Festival".
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edinburgh_Festival

I think the answer "Edinburgh Festival" of myoarin-ga is correct. Thank you.
How can I pay you?

Greetings,
I am pleased to have been able to help.  Only G-A Researchers with a
blue name like Answerfinder-ga's can post an official answer and be
paid.

Actually, I feel a little bad about having answered this, since I am
sure that Answerfinder and many other Researchers also immediately
knew this answer, but were perhaps reluctant to post one because the
apparently official name includes "international".  Sorry, folks.

Regards, Myoarin
