The Party of
The Decade

15 Years of Fringe

Get ready to pop the corks! 2026 marks our massive 15th Anniversary, and we are throwing the biggest month-long birthday bash Greater Manchester has ever seen.

We are turning the volume up to eleven. From comedy legends to theatre rebels, join the celebration. This isn't just a festival; it's a party across the borough, and you are the guest of honour.
