NEWS Since we first brought Exeter Fringe Festival to the city in 2019, things have changed beyond our wildest imaginings! It’s not just Covid, it’s the funding landscape, cultural organisations & leaders in the city, and changes in our own lives and careers too.

For now though, we’d like to thank all our fantastic partners who helped us to put on a festival in 2019 and 2021 and to all the artists and audiences we met along the way.

With that in mind we’ve been talking to the brains behind other cultural organisations in the city to see if it’s possible for some of the support that we provided for artists last year to continue in some form. Keep an eye out for announcements about that coming soon.

We’re particularly proud of the 2021 festival which went ahead against the odds, and supported a wide ranging programme of new work to be created in the heart of the city.

We’ve decided to step away from running Exeter Fringe Festival moving forward. It has been truly wonderful to be able to support artists in Exeter to create new things and perform their work.

Like many working in the arts, our team are working across lots of projects and organisations and the amount of unpaid planning required to produce the Exeter Fringe Festival is not feasible within their schedules this year.

At Exeter Fringe we’ve taken a few months to reflect and (sort of) rest after our 2021 Festival last October. We’ve decided that we won’t be producing a festival in 2022. There’s a mix of reasons behind this, but the main one is capacity.
