The Edinburgh Festival Fringe is an open arts festival and remains one of the world's only platforms for free artistic expression. The artists and performers who participate fund and fend for themselves, investing huge effort and financial commitment. These efforts are supported by a number of organisations who have become part of what maxes the Fringe work.
