What is FringeMakers?
FringeMakers is a collaboration between the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society and Crowdfunder - supporting the many artists and creatives who make the Fringe happen every year by providing them with a way and space to generate financial support. Since we launched in 2020, during the first months of the pandemic, the FringeMakers platform has helped over 200 artists and venues collectively raise over £600,000.
Are you a Fringe fan?
The Fringe wouldn’t exist without the incredible creative souls who bring their extraordinary work to Edinburgh every year. It’s their dedication, commitment and sheer hard work that bring the festival to life. They are the Fringe; we want to help them, and this wonderful festival, to continue for generations to come.
Explore the wonderful array of individual projects on the platform and donate what you can.
