Wandsworth Arts Fringe marks 15 years of creative risk-taking

There's a lot going on in Wandsworth right now. Not only has it been named as the London Borough of Culture 2025, but it's also gearing up for the fifteenth anniversary edition of its massive annual arts festival.

Wandsworth Arts Fringe takes place 7-23 June, bringing brand new theatre, experimental music and dance, inventive cabaret, and work-in-progress shows from comedy's rising stars to a variety of venues all across the borough. Let loose under Putney Bridge at a Midsummer Night's Rave. Take the whole family to a Peruvian folk-inspired puppet show. Bask in a classical sound bath. Or even get creative yourself with a writing, drama, dance or craft workshop. 

With 17 days and nights of events to look forward to, we reckon you'll want to take advantage of Wandsworth Arts Fringe's multi-buy offer. Book tickets to three events and you'll get a massive 30% off (exclusions apply). There's also plenty of free fun to be had — from art exhibitions to community circus, to a genre-bending quartet in a church. Click below to view the full programme and get your tickets.
