This September let’s render the city limitless.
Dublin Fringe Festival will turn the city of Dublin into a stage for some of the most jaw dropping performances and events of the year. Artists will take over the city with unmissable live art experiences for 16 days and nights, lighting up dozens of indoor and outdoor venues and sprinkling that Dublin Fringe magic into every corner.
From form-bursting theatre productions in unlikely settings, electric dance performance, immersive installations to epic party nights out, artists will breathe life into every corner of our vibrant city. Dive into the mosh pit, explore the garden at dusk, rage in the wrestling ring, and brace yourselves for wild nights out.
