Frequently asked questions

What does my Friends membership fee contribute to?
How do I know when my membership is active?

Your membership will be active as soon as you have completed payment and will be linked to the contact who completes the purchase. When the contact logs in, they will notice that the login symbol in the top right-hand corner of tickets.edfringe.com has turned purple, indicating your status as a Fringe Friend. If this is showing as blue instead of purple, please contact the Corporate Friends team.
How does the Friends 2for1 ticket offer work?
Fringe shows have the option to take part in the Friends 2for1 ticket offer at the point of registration – you'll be able to see which shows have signed up by looking out for the purple Friends icon on their edfringe.com listing.

Once the primary contact has logged into the Corporate Friends account and has chosen a participating show, select two full-price tickets – a discount to the cost of one full-price ticket will be applied at the checkout stage.

Please note:
- The Friends 2for1 ticket offer cannot be used in conjunction with other 2for1 ticket offers or concessions.
- The Friends 2for1 ticket offer applies only to those shows which have chosen to take part, not every show in the programme.

We have a full list of terms and conditions on our website, but there are a few key points to bear in mind:

Friend receptions and Fringe Society events are subject to capacity limits and / or safety restrictions.
Corporate Friend memberships are non-refundable.
Corporate Friend memberhips run for one Fringe season and expire on 31 December each year.
