Out There Fringe Fest is back, and we couldn’t be more excited! 

 

Out There Fringe Fest’26 is a 4-week feast of queer arts and culture, taking place September to October. And this year’s festival is supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England.

The festival combines a mix of LGBTQIA+ performances and community events to form a unique, interdisciplinary programme, spanning theatre, cabaret, music, open mic, art, creative workshops, and more. 

​

The festival returns after the hugely successful 2024 festival, which garnered 1,300 attendees, 40 events and 50+ practitioners, and won the award for Exeter Community Champion 2025. Read more about 2024’s Festival here.
