London is home to over 100 fringe, pub, and independent theatres, alongside six dedicated fringe festivals. This is a concentration unmatched anywhere else in the world. 

The vibrant and prolific ecosystem reflects a city that thrives on risk-taking, experimentation, and new voices. Fringe theatre plays a vital role as the starting point of the creative food chain.  Where emerging talent is discovered, new work is born, and the next generation of cultural leaders begins. No other city is so richly fertile for fringe to grow, evolve, and influence the wider arts landscape. 

London is not just ready for fringe... it’s built for it.
