For Fringe 2022 we're producing two editions of the printed programme: a standard edition and a special edition to celebrate the festival's 75th anniversary.
Pre-order one online
You can pay to have either edition of the programme delivered by mail. Pre-ordering your programme today means you will be among the first to get your hands on it when it launches on 07 July 2022.
Please choose which programme you'd like to pre-order:
The standard Fringe programme is free.
To get a copy delivered to your door, there is a cost of £6 to cover postage and processing.
Both editions of the 2022 Fringe programme will be available to pick up in person from the Fringe Shop after launch day on 07 July. The standard edition will also be available from a number of locations across the UK after that point – we'll provide a list of these locations once they're confirmed.
Some members of our Fringe Friends scheme get an official Fringe programme delivered to their door, free of charge, as well as lots of other great benefits.
Yes! In fact, we have not one but two versions of the printed Fringe programme available this year: a standard edition and a special 75th anniversary edition with an alternative front cover.
Our programme launch date is 07 July – it is available to pre-order right now (see above), and will also be available to order online or collect in person from launch. Pre-ordered programmes will be posted to arrive on the 05 July, however there may be delays beyond our control.
To mark the Fringe’s 75th anniversary, we have designed a special programme cover that celebrates the Fringe's wonderful history. The special edition is a must-have for programme collectors, and proceeds from its sale will help support the Fringe Society’s charitable activities.
Our programme launch is on Thursday 07 July; you can pre-order a programme beforehand to ensure your copy arrives at or ahead of launch. We will also have copies available to pick up from the Fringe Shop (180 High Street, Edinburgh) from 07 July, and from select distribution points around the UK. We will update this page once those outlets are confirmed.

The standard edition of the Fringe programme is free. To get a copy delivered to your door, there is a cost of £6 to cover postage and processing. This programme will be available to collect from 07 July from a range of distribution points across Edinburgh and the UK.
To mark the Fringe’s 75th anniversary, we have designed a special edition programme that has an alternative front cover to the standard version (both versions will contain listings for every Fringe show). Alongside postage and processing, we are a charging a fee for the special edition, the proceeds of which will support the Fringe Society’s charitable objectives.
The Fringe Society is still recovering from the impact of the pandemic. By purchasing a special edition programme or opting to donate, you will help us to:
support the brilliant artists who create the Fringe each year
improve accessibility at the festival
help the communities and young people of Edinburgh engage with the Fringe and live arts.
