The Ventnor Fringe takes place in August, and it was originally created by a team of local teenagers in 2010. The festival has grown into a multi award winning event, based on the principles of the Edinburgh Fringe that inspired it, but carving a distinct identity of its own. It's a celebration of the arts, showcasing emerging and established talent across every creative discipline. Each year it attracts more than 300 performers from across the world that together transform Ventnor into a wonderland of pop up bars and secret venues.
