About EFFS
The Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society was founded by artists to nurture and uphold the Fringe’s values of inclusivity, experimentation and imagination.
The founding principle at the heart of the Fringe is to be an open access festival that accommodates anyone with a desire to perform and a venue willing to host them. No single individual or committee determines who can or cannot perform at the Fringe; the Fringe Society does not run any venues or programme any performers.
The Fringe Society has three core objectives:
- Provide support, advice and encouragement to all participants.
- Assist audiences to navigate what’s on offer.
- Celebrate the Fringe and what it stands for all over the world.
