Haslemere Fringe

The Haslemere Fringe Festival is a lively community arts event held every two years on the village green in Haslemere, Surrey. Over a summer weekend, the festival brings live music, comedy, dance and poetry to the town’s lawn. Multiple stages fill the air with sounds ranging from upbeat rock and pop to mellow acoustic and folk, alongside stand-up comedy, theatre and spoken-word performances. A bustling row of artisan stalls offers handmade crafts and tasty street food, creating a festive market atmosphere. The Fringe is volunteer-run and family-friendly; children enjoy puppet shows and games while adults relax on picnic blankets under the sun. With its friendly, inclusive vibe, the festival invites families and music lovers alike to enjoy a fun-packed midsummer weekend. Whether you come for headline acts or to discover new talent, the Haslemere Fringe Festival promises a joyful celebration of local culture, creativity and community.
