Bath Fringe Festival

Call-Out to Curators for FaB Festival 2025:

Do you have an idea for an exhibition, performance, intervention or event? Tell us about it. If you’re selected, we’ll help you make it happen for FaB Festival 2025.

Deadline: Fri 1st November 2024

Find out more here: www.fringeartsbath.co.uk/news/2024/24/07/call-out-curators-fab-2025.

FaB is offering aspiring Curators the opportunity to devise and organise a show as part of the Fringe Arts Bath Festival programme, running 23 May to 7 June 2025.

We invite fresh and challenging concepts; FaB is a test-bed for new ideas, a platform for Curators and Artists to show experimental work beyond the gallery walls.

Anyone can propose a project, exhibition, performance or event, “You don’t have to have ‘Curator’ written on your business card to apply”. Any level of experience is welcome: students, graduates, artists, local, national, international.

FaB will support you with reaching artists, promotion, space - both online and physical, logistics and more.

Find out what is involved and how to apply by visiting our news page www.fringeartsbath.co.uk/news/2024/24/07/call-out-curators-fab-2025

If you're anywhere near the north-east of the Apennines ['appen it's not the Pennines] in the next few days, you can treat yourself to one of Europe's best street festivals with our friends in Pennabilli [RI] Italy. ...And even a few artists you will be familiar with from the Fringe, & Bath & Bristol.
From Rimini, San Marino, Ravenna, Pesaro, Urbino, Arezzo, even Bologna & Firenze [Florence], it's not far to another world...
Have a great festival everybody!

Last call for a psychedelic journey through the cosmos in Bath, UK tonight!

Doors - 8pm
Show starts 8:30pm

Silas & Saski (of Ozric Tentacles) will be performing as part of Bath Fringe Festival as a trio with new Trinidadian bass player Coreysan.

Also featuring solo sets from Silas Neptune and Saskia Maxwell.

Ticket link in comments.

On stage at 1 this afternoon Bath Fringe Festival presents The Saint Melonians.

Legends of Welsh Calypso, indeed, though perhaps don't look too hard at the claims of this Cardiff trio: just sit back and enjoy their irreverent approach to pop classics and street-performers' audience skills.

A Bath Fringe Festival Event
Clever Victorian inventor sends himself and his machine over 800,000 years (!) into the future and finds a race of Beatle haircut wearing youngsters tucking into oversized fruit. Mysteriously there are no older people.. What is the ghastly truth about this apparent Eden? Now there's something to look forward to.
Some tickets still available for this technicolour fable! Hurry, hurry for a good seat, even the bad ones are being snapped up!
