Edinburgh

Fringe Festival

6th – 28th August

Whilst still remaining true to our founding principle of open-access for all performers, the Fringe has come a long way since its organisational beginnings in a disused pub with a leaky roof just off the Royal Mile. We now sell over 1.35 million tickets worth more than £10m, and employ a year-round full-time staff of 11 which increases to around 120 in August.
If you're looking for the low-down on the Fringe Society itself and the services it provides throughout the year for performers and public, you're in the right place.
On this part of the website you'll also be able to find information on who we are and who our sponsors and supporters.
