About the Fringe 2010

The Stroud Fringe is back for 2010 with what promises to be the biggest and best event on Stroud’s arts calendar.

Stroud, situated in Gloucestershire, is a hive of cultural, artistic and musical activity every day of the year, and over one weekend in September, thousands of punters and hundreds of performers come together to celebrate what’s on offer.

The Fringe Festival Committee plans to follow up the success of last year’s main stage in Bank Gardens (near The Space) with another this year, and will be pulling out all the stops to bring a fantastic programme of events to the area.

We’re also teaming up with the Stroud Food Festival and Stroud Walking Festival to be part of the Stroud Festival Fortnight.

Enviromental Policy

The Stroud Fringe Festival is committed to keeping its carbon footprint low. We only use local businesses to print our posters, programmes and flyers, and we try to recruit as many Stroudies as possible to prevent volunteers needing to travel.

Stroud is well placed for transport to and from the festival, and with parking limited in the town, the alternatives are worth considering. Stroud is on main train lines from London, Cheltenham, Gloucester, Bath, Bristol, Swindon and the West Midlands. Visit www.nationalrail.co.uk for timetables.

Stagecoach and Cotswold Green bus services regularly serve the town and surrounding areas. Please check www.stagecoachbus.co.uk for timetables.

We also use PA and sound hire companies based in, or as close to Stroud as possible, to make sure we support local businesses.
