Description

The Edinburgh International Festival may have come first, but generally it's the Fringe that Edinburgh is best-known for. There's really nothing quite like it - "the largest show on Earth".

It's a sprawling, anarchic, sleepless month of live performances. There are hundreds of free shows and pay-what-you-want shows at the Fringe as well.

The full Fringe 2024 programme is out - you can view the printed Fringe brochure online.

As in previous years, shows have been released in batches, with most of the shows revealed by the time that the printed Fringe programme hit the streets on 12th June.

Fringe App and Covid

Fringe 2023 saw the return of a Fringe app (released on Tuesday 11 July) after the Fringe Society controversially dropped it for Fringe 2022. Fringe boss Shona McCarthy said this was due to lack of time, money, and general uncertainty caused by the pandemic, to develop the app.

Due to Covid-19 restrictions, the Fringe in 2021 followed a slimmed-down, hybrid programme of both live performances at fewer, socially distant in-person venues and online, but returned to in-person shows in 2022 and returned in strength in 2023.

The Fringe Society did not print a Fringe brochure in 2021. The summer Edinburgh festivals were cancelled in 2020 due to Covid-19, although an online programme did take place.
