Discover Folkestone Fringe
We support bold, local, and collaborative art projects - made with and for the people who live here.
Since 2007, Folkestone Fringe has worked across the town — in empty shops, skateparks, schools and seaside venues — to bring art into everyday spaces. We produce and support creative projects that connect people to each other, and to the places that they share.
We believe public art shouldn’t just be seen — it should be shaped by the people around it. That’s why our work is community-led, site-responsive, and always open to participation.
The Fringe runs its flagship programme in parallel with the Folkestone Triennial — not to duplicate it, but to amplify it. While international artists respond to the town, we make sure local voices are heard too. Because the people who live here should help shape the stories being told.
