📣Announcement – Tunbridge Wells Fringe Festival Update! 📣
The team behind the Tunbridge Wells Fringe 2026 have been working hard behind the scenes to plan another amazing celebration of local talent, creativity, and community. However, after careful thought, we’ve decided to take a short break this year as our planned dates coincide with the World Cup. Rather than compete for attention, we’re using this time to refresh, reflect, and make the next festival our biggest and boldest yet!
We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to all the venues, performers, volunteers, and audiences who bring such wonderful energy to the Fringe every year. Your passion is what makes the festival truly special.
We’re already planning an exciting programme for June 26th- July 11th 2027, packed with fresh acts, new collaborations, and even more opportunities to celebrate the incredible arts scene we have here in Tunbridge Wells. Keep an eye on our channels over the coming months – we’ll be sharing updates and early announcements as our plans unfold.
The Fringe will be back June 26th- July 11th 2027 — and it’s going to be worth the wait!
