Swansea Fringe is back for 2024! Returning to bring you the best in emerging music, comedy, spoken word, poetry, and creative performance art, Swansea Fringe is a celebration of South Wales’ creativity.
From intimate music venues to unconventional art spaces, the festival invites you to enjoy almost 100 performances across the city. Discover your new favourite live bands and musicians, support grassroots talent, take part in interactive workshops, meet others, and have a good laugh at comedy performances. From the buzzing live music atmosphere of The Bunkhouse Swansea to the immersive art at Elysium, the raw energy of Hangar 18 Music Venue, the chilled vibes at Hippos and HQ Urban Kitchen, and the cultural experiences at Tŷ Tawe, each space brings something unique to the festival experience.
This year’s event is proudly sponsored by Swansea Council’s Cultural Tourism Anchor, with support from stage sponsors Urban Village Swansea, Swansea Arena, 4theRegion, and PRS for Music.
Tickets: Full-entry wristband tickets are now available for £20, offering access to the entire festival. There will also be options to pay at the door for single venue entry, subject to availability, with costs varying per venue.
