Durham Fringe is a grassroots organisation made up of local people, working alongside local businesses, looking to grow a collective dream of our own fringe festival in Durham City. 2024 will be our 4th year, and we cannot wait to welcome artists and audiences once more. Information for artists and performers will be on the way this winter, sign up to our mailing list to be the first to hear about it!

And with that the curtains close on Grow Up Magic Man 2023

What an incredible journey it has been - 5 months in the making, 4 sellout shows and over 600 people in attendance!

Can’t have asked for a better team at the assemblyroomstheatre and durhamfringefest can’t wait to do it all again next year.

Even BIGGER and even BETTER!

Huge congratulations to the other incredible acts at the festival, such an amazingly talented group of people and an absolute pleasure to watch.

What a weekend. What a show. What a cast. What a team. What a festival.

Thank you to durhamfringefest for the opportunity to showcase our debut show, Error at the Bigg Market. With such a talented cast in Dan, Emma, Callum, Becky and Sam, we weren`t nervous at how well it was going to do. We had laughs galore from both nights and the feedback has been incredible. We thank everyone who took the time to support us and come down to watch!

Now for a much needed break and then back on it! Keep an eye out on our socials for our next show!

Just seen a sick (and totally gay) rendition of the Taming of the Shrew by menstrualragetheatre at durhamfringefest who did an incredible job of performing over the cathedral bells. Loved. It. Not an easy play to make into a feminist feel-good but they pulled it off, great work 💖

Tonight’s the opening night of Study Hell at the Durham Fringe! We’re covering science…which might explain why Alastair’s dressed like an idiot.

If you want to learn some Very Real And Serious Science, come to our show tonight at 10:35pm in Cafedral! And if you’re feeling extra keen, check out our story for a cheeky physics pop quiz…

Get tickets to our show using the link in our bio - part of the durhamfringefest !

We have a favour to ask...

Last night we enjoyed two fantastic shows from the Durham Fringe Festival! durhamfringefest

One of which was an amazing performance by 16 year old singer songwriter amity_sings!!

We were absolutely dazzled by his music. He sang straight from the heart and has such a huge career ahead of him.

We`d like to ask all our followers to go show him some love! Please go give him a follow and take the time to listen to his songs on YouTube, you`ll find him by searching `Amity Miller`.
`Plasticine` and `City of Stars` were some of our personal faves!!

Can`t wait to tell people that we had ice cream with a (future) platinum best selling artist!!
