Support Us

World Fringe is a not-for-profit supporting Fringe Festivals worldwide, creating vital space for artists to take risks, develop work, and be seen.

Since 2007, we have built a global network of over 300 Fringe Festivals, connecting a powerful international community and championing Fringe as a leader in creativity and innovation.

Together, we are a global Fringe Family, sharing knowledge, supporting each other, and strengthening the sector.

We rely on contributions from the Fringe community to continue this work.

Your support helps us connect festivals, support new and emerging Fringes, advocate for the sector, and deliver initiatives like the World Fringe Congress.
