Surrey’s annual multi-arts festival GUILDFORD FRINGE opens this week

Gag House Comedy Superstars

After last year’s event was cancelled, Guildford Fringe Festival is back with a packed programme of entertainment from 2 July, running until 25 July.

Set up in 2013, Guildford’s largest multi-arts festival is an open-access celebration featuring theatre, comedy, poetry, music, visual arts, family-friendly shows, talks and free events.  

The festival will open at the Yvonne Arnaud Theatre with Gag House Comedy Superstars, headlined by Rich Hall, with other festival highlights including Fringe Chorus on 3 July, Colour with Guildford in Bloom on 4 July and Guildford’s Rock Choir on 11 July, which all take place in the town centre.   

Managing Director of Guildford Fringe Festival, Nick Wyschna, said:  “It’s here, Guildford Fringe Festival 2021! Can you believe it, we are actually back and putting on a month-long festival full of art and culture?  I am completely thrilled. The line-up of acts is sublime and I am so excited to watch every single show.  

“It is clear to me that the public has missed live entertainment. Tickets are selling fast so please do book in advance as, due to the restrictions being extended, once we are full, we are full - there will be no squeezing chairs in this year I am afraid.  

“We have gone to great expense to make sure everyone is, and feels, safe at the shows. We have brand new hospital grade air-purifiers and we have bought clear dividers to put in-between audience bubbles. All the venues will be cleaned before and after all shows and we will be adhering to all COVID safety rules. Just come along and have a great time with us!”
