Guildford Fringe Festival returns in July 2021

Guildford Fringe Festival is set to return from 2-25 July 2021, packed full of cultural delights.

Over 60 arts events have been programmed for Guildford’s largest independent multi-arts festival, featuring theatre, comedy, poetry, music, visual arts, family-friendly shows, talks and free events. Further acts are also to be announced.

This year’s festival venues include Clandon Wood Nature Reserve, Yvonne Arnaud Theatre, The Back Room of the Star Inn, The Keep Pub, The Guildhall and the historic town centre of Guildford. 

Managing Director of Guildford Fringe Festival, Nick Wyschna, said: “It feels great to be talking about Guildford Fringe Festival once again after having to cancel it in 2020. It’s been a tough year but let's focus on the positives. We were fortunate enough to be awarded a Cultural Recovery Grant from Arts Council England which gives us a blanket of security when it comes to planning. Throughout July, audiences can be immersed in theatrical energy whatever events they choose to come and see. The participating artists, producers and venues have had a tough year - come and celebrate with them and support the arts at the same time. As well as ACE, I would like to thank Chapters Financial, Guildford Borough Council, Experience Guildford, Guildford Arts and Churchmill Accountants for sponsoring this year’s Guildford Fringe Festival and for helping us put Guildford back on the map as a cultural hub.”
