Why Are Fringe Festivals Important?

Fringes rely on a myriad of different things to ensure the success and magic of their festival. Artists who bring the very best of themselves, their craft and creativity - something for everyone; the venues and all the staff and volunteers who make the events run smoothly; funders and stakeholders who align their visions with the festival to support it; the audiences who experience and enjoy the fruits of these building blocks.

 But it is really the people running the festival who lie at the heart of its success. Without a professional and dedicated team to carry the organisation, it would not survive for long. Festivals need people who have the vision and knowledge to build on achievements year on year. A solid core of individuals working together to inspire and deliver the very best event they can. Not only are Festivals good for the economy, jobs, and tourism but they are food for our souls and wellbeing.

We often say Fringe Festivals are the start of the food chain for professional arts, they are also where stars are born. They create open conversation and play an essential part in joining and mixing up cultures, breeding confidence and acceptance. Despite a changing world, positive engagement and social interaction are what keeps us going. It is a thriving community that generates the building blocks of a successful festival.

  Support your Fringe, get involved, play along and see something new. Every day a new adventure! Will you be there to see the star born?
