The Dublin Fringe Festival is a 16-day and night, citywide, event. Unique as a festival, the Dublin Fringe Festival offers works from various disciplines, including music and theatre. It is a fun-filled, action-packed event with a little of everything – it is the Japanese meal of the festival form.

Hosted every year in Dublin city, the Dublin Fringe Festival is always a much-anticipated event; its schedule is always packed with the latest shows from the contemporary arts and music scenes; and much, much more.

The event is spread throughout various Dublin city venues, from car parks and theatres to warehouses, art galleries, and schools. Every year in the month of September, Dublin city is hijacked by the Fringe festival. Barely any area of the city is left vacant, with shows and events springing up across the capital. Audience participation is always encouraged; the Dublin Fringe Festival is a truly interactive event.

With both home grown and international artists showcasing their talents across the diversification of venues, there will definitely be something to satisfy even the most obscure of tastes. The Fringe festival is known in the industry for its avant-garde attitude, challenging the everyday and subverting norms. Autumn is an excellent time to visit Ireland, with its gentle temperament and winds that have been warmed up by the summer months. To get the most out of your trip, book your car hire in Dublin airport and take to the streets of Dublin during the Dublin Fringe Festival, a truly exciting time in Dublin’s calendar.

So, what can you expect to see exactly? Be prepared for snakes, hoopla, contortionists, lions and other exotic animals, music and theatre productions …, expect the unexpected! Each year of the Fringe is unique, visitors never know what will happen next, but one thing is for sure, it will be exhilarating, edgy, contemporary, and most of all FUN!
