History of the Fringe Festival
Wexford Fringe Festival in its 59th year is the largest annual fringe festival in
the southeast of Ireland, taking place each October in the medieval town of Wexford.
The Fringe Festival is co-ordinated by the Wexford Chamber.
Wexford’s Fringe Festival combined with Wexford Festival Opera, one of the top three
festivals of opera in the world, transforms Wexford into a vibrant hub each October.
Wexford Fringe Festival has become a vital showcase for Irish Arts nationally and
internationally. Over the past 58 years the Fringe Festival has grown into one of
Ireland's largest cultural events featuring dramas, light opera, exhibitions, the
Guinness Singing and Swinging Pubs Competition, trad sessions, workshops and much
more.
