We welcome you BACK for our third year of world class entertainment right in the heart of Aberdeen.
About this Event

Aberdeen Fringe Festival is BACK.

After a simply incredible start in 2023, aberdeen sees the fringe return celebrating entertainers, artists, musicians, performers etc from all over the northeast of Scotland, and welcomes entertainers from all over the world.

We’re doing the same again, asking you to purchase a band that allows you entry to see the venues. We take 70% of these band sales and redistribute it amongst out acts.

We’re also upping the amount of venues we have available and the amount of entertainment. 2025 will be our biggest ever year. With our focus on cementing the festival not only in the city but as a destination for acts from further afield.

We expect to see well over 200 shows over the 3 days, as we’ve added friday evening in also. Thats a lot more for your band. We can’t wait to welcome you all again to what will be an amazing celebration of what we have on our doorstep as well as bringing entertainers from around the globe to our small part of the world.

Once you’ve purchased a band you collect it on the day from our onsite box office. This allows you to travel around the venues at your leisure catching shows when ever you like, but remember when a show is full its full. So planning what show you want to see might be essential.

We have the addition of a grand ballroom which will feature a full two days of family friendly shows, from magic, bubble shows, ventriliquisim to science.

Children’s shows will run from 12noon til 7pm on saturday and sunday. Meaning there will plenty for the wee ones to see before it perhaps becomes a bit more manic. Children are deemed as 0 - 12. There is a ticket price for over 12s which is reduced but these children must be accompanied by an adult.

You have so much to see, so much to do. You simply can not miss out on this incredible experience right here in our own city.

70% of all money generated will be divided equally between the slot times ensuring each performer receives the same as the others. Its fair and we love that we can give back to the artists that make our fringe a special one.

Refunds are available 3 months before commencement of the fringe, after which refunds will no longer be available but there will be plenty opportunity to resale your ticket as is industry standards.
