We started out as a group of friends, living and working in the North East, who love Fringe Festivals and thought it would be great to create our own in Durham City. This is a grassroots organisation made up of local people, working alongside local businesses, looking to grow a collective dream. The Community Interest Company that was set up to run the festival is a non profit organisation which sets out to benefit the people of our county and give performers the chance to find new audiences.
