Fringe programme
The official Fringe programme is a paper brochure containing information on almost every show at the Fringe.
Please note: Fringe shows that register after the programme's print deadline are included in our online show listings and the Fringe app.
How can I get a programme?
There are three main ways you can get yourself a Fringe programme:
Pick up a copy in person
The Fringe programme is available to pick up in person at the Fringe Shop; and from various distribution points across the country from launch on Tuesday 03 June (though we can't guarantee they'll be in place from launch day – it may take a few days for them to arrive). Use the map below to find your nearest distribution point – we'll continue to update this map as more distribution points are added through summer.
If you would like to become or restock a programme distribution point, or need to order between 50 and 200 copies, please fill in the bulk programme request form.
