In what was billed as the UK's first Ginger Pride Walk, more than 100 flame-haired folk took part in the event, which was part of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
Marchers gathered outside the Balmoral Hotel to follow Canadian comedian and proud redhead Shawn Hitchins, BBC reports.
Hitchins said it was a fun way to stand up against prejudice and those who poke fun at people with ginger hair.
Speaking ahead of the march, Hitchins said: "Even although it isn't a real word, gingerism exists and bullying exists and you can't deny that kids are being subjected to taunts or being bullied in schools just for having red hair.''
Scotland is said to be home to almost a fifth of the world's redheads.
