 WELCOME TO THE FREE EDINBURGH FRINGE
FESTIVAL!
Sadly the 2013 Fringe is now over, but don't
worry - The Free Fringe Festival will be back in
Edinburgh from July 31st to August 24th 2014
In 2013 we had another packed programme of shows
in venues across Edinburgh with over 6,400
performances of 365 different shows.
In 2013 our shows won:
Edinburgh Comedy Awards,
Malcolm Hardee Awards, and where
nominates for the TO&ST Cabaret Awards,
and Total Theatre Awards. Along
with over 40 five star reviews shows, and 140
four star reviewed shows - meaning our free
shows are also a sign of top quality Fringe
 shows,
while letting performers and audiences
experience the freedom of the Fringe, with a
chance to experiment and enjoy. Just what the
Fringe should be!
This year we had shows
in 20 venues, which had 36 performance spaces
between then - and we will be back at these
venues and more in 2014! We had a huge selection of Fringe
Comedy, Theatre, Cabaret,
Music, Spoken Word and Children's shows that
made our
10th Anniversary year
another fantastic year of Fringe entertainment,
and probably our most critically acclaimed year
too.
And as always, it was all Free! with the performers asking for
a donation at the end, so audiences could get out and
see as much of the vibrant, manic, exciting
Fringe action as possible.
We'll be opening
performers applications for Fringe 2014 in
December, and our 2014 programme will be
live on this site from May 2014. In the meantime
you can use the options on the
