Venue Programming
C ARTS is a home for international independent arts, at the Edinburgh Fringe and online. We programme across all artforms with an emphasis on new and dynamic work. Our curated season at C venues, showcasing new and classic theatre, physical theatre, musicals, opera, dance, circus, cabaret, spoken word, children's and family shows, film and video, visual and performance art, makes us one of the most vibrant and eclectic venue programmes on the Fringe. We have a track record programming site-specific, immersive, installation, interdisciplinary and multimedia work. Our in-person programme is mostly ticketed, with some pay-what-you-think shows and free events. Running alongside our main season, our events programme offers artists from across the Fringe opportunities to highlight their work and perform outside the box. Our year-round digital online programme, C digital, offers companies and artists the chance to make connections and build their international reach.
