Bag your Fringe entry now!


Fringe40 bag goes travelling


It's not too late to join the bonanza that is Fringe40! At the end of our first deadline we had a 73% increase in the number of entries compared to the same period in 2018 so even taking into account the special appeal of our one-off £40 early entry fee, it looks as if this is going to be a bumper Fringe.

Anyone who enters before the end of March will still enjoy a substantial discount on the full entry fee. The strict final deadline for the printed programme is April 21st.

Our loyal audiences are already getting excited and as you will see from the picture, our limited edition Fringe40 bag has been travelling far and wide! You can get hold of yours from the Green Man Gallery, Buxton. It's just £3 or £2.50 for Fringe Friends on presentation of their FF card.

We cannot begin to tell you how much we are looking forward to this year's Fringe - our 40th. Special events will include a celebratory exhibition at the Green Man Gallery on the history of the Fringe. The real stars are always the Fringe's performers and artists however and you can see our bumper programme building up right now on our website. There is already something in every category - music, art, spoken word, dance, theatre, family shows, comedy, film, street theatre and more! We look forward to launching the programme in style on the evening of June 8th at Buxton's Green Man Gallery - all welcome.

Anyone can enter the Fringe so please help us spread the word. It is going to be a fantastic summer with Buxton International Festival celebrating its 40th anniversary at the same time!

Just time to give a shout out to all our friends, venues, volunteers and supporters and particularly our long-standing sponsor The University of Derby.

Happy Fringe-going!
