What is happening?

Brighton Fringe Festival runs from the 28th of May to the 27th of June 2021.  Once again we have a full programme of Fringe shows for you at The Secret Comedy Club: Fringe Comedy Hub. From taster preview nights where you can see 10 to 15 min previews of  Fringe shows to full 1 hour performances of comedy, music and theater, we have something for everyone at Artista this May for the Festival! You can find us at Artista, 42 Waterloo Street BN31AY. Most tickets to our events cost only £5 (£10 maximum).

Who are we?

Artista is a versatile arts cafe/bar located just one minute from Hove seafront and a 5 minute walk from the i360 in the heart of Brighton & Hove. A small independent venue with a varied programme of events including art exhibitions, live music, theater, poetry, storytelling & comedy. Audience participation is always welcome & encouraged. This is a space for creative spontaneity!

Brighton Fringe 2021

What is the Fringe?

During May, the Fringe welcomes international performers and audiences as it showcases the creative heart and soul of the city and its unique cultural heritage. This vast celebration of the weird, wild and wonderful has grown out of, and is inspired by, home-grown talent. more than 30% of events are put on by artistic companies based in Brighton & Hove.

Committed to helping the arts flourish. the Fringe is completely open-access, which means anyone can register and put on a Fringe event as no selection criteria is imposed on participants. This enables both new and established performers to take risks and entertain audiences. We also help artists develop professionally through a range of year-round workshops, mentoring and bursary programmes.

They also work closely with festivals worldwide and international networks such as the World Festival Network and World Fringe Alliance to further support performers in touring, fundraising and developing.
