  Let $G$ be a finite simple graph and $I(G)$ denote the corresponding edge
ideal in a polynomial ring over a field $\mathbb{K}$. In this paper, we obtain
upper bounds for the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of symbolic powers of
certain classes of edge ideals. We also prove that for several classes of
graphs, the regularity of symbolic powers of their edge ideals coincides with
that of their ordinary powers.
