Welcome to Bath Fringe Festival

Bath Fringe is a 17-Day festival of all the artforms we can find (and some that don't have names yet) in the Beautiful City of Bath, with the collaboration of many of its Beautiful & Talented population.


Bath Fringe 2013 runs from Friday May 24 to Sunday June 9, 2013 (and even a few days either side)

Currently peaking somewhere around 200 events (including a wholefestival), featuring performers from around the world and from next door, in places from the Spiegeltent, to the secret rooms of Bath, to the streets and cafιs, and of course in all the city's best venues...

10 days of Spiegeltent including: Georgie Fame, Get The Blessing, Gas Giants, Smerin's Anti-Social Club, Sam Lee, Noel Britten & Friends … Konkoma, Hoochie Coochie Kabaret, Joe Driscoll & Seckou Kouyate, Anthony Joseph, Hollie Cook … and Mono the Monkey! Kids' Festival including the return of The Talent Show!

Other exciting projects include extra new shows, sites and days for Bedlam Fair, our street weekend, and the return to drama of no less than Bath's original Old Theatre Royal [aka. Masonic Hall], including an immersive festival of New Writing and a big weekend of new work. See under'events' on the menu to the left of this page.
