Announcing the Award for Excellence Winner in association with Junkyard Dogs
Junkyard Dogs have had two amazing years involved with Brighton Fringe, winning the Audience Choice...
Brighton Fringe 2023 taking place from May 5 to June 4 is displaying more than 500 events across more than 100 venues in Brighton and beyond.
The cost of living crisis surely put a halt on our spending habits, hence why Brighton Fringe 2023 worked hard to offer audiences different ticket types suitable for every occasion.
A lot of events decided to opt for a free ticketing option. Some of these free events may still be ticketed but all you will need to do is book a ticket to attend these events. Some of them may be non-ticketed and some may ask for donations to be paid at events.
It’s up to you to decide but make sure not to miss this year’s fringe!
Here is a list of events offering free ticketing options:
An improvised sketch show recreating high-stakes scenes from your favourite movies! From the breathless intensity of thrillers, or the fleeting serendipity of romance, to the smooth cynicism of Film Noir, and the heart-stopping action of a summer blockbuster!
Make sure not to miss this!
