Newport Live Act Fringe: A Bold New Festival for Performing Arts

11 March 2025 40

A brand-new performing arts festival celebrating bold, ambitious, and innovative work in its early stages

Newport is about to get a fresh injection of creativity this March with the launch of the Newport Live Act Fringe,

Running from March 21st to 23rd, 2025, this exciting event will bring together a mix of theatre, comedy, music, drag, circus, spoken word, storytelling, puppetry, and more.

Produced by Tin Shed Theatre Co., Newport Live Act Fringe aims to provide a vital platform for emerging artists while giving audiences a unique chance to experience cutting-edge performances in a festival setting. Newport’s thriving cultural scene makes it the perfect location for a fringe festival, and with up to 25 different performances taking place over the weekend, there’s something for all ages and tastes.

Affordable, Accessible, and Across the City

Unlike traditional theatre events, the Newport Live Act Fringe embraces the spirit of grassroots performance, with shows happening in some of the city’s most exciting venues, including:

Le Pub
The Cab
The Place
Arcadia Bistro
Newport Rising Hub
Corn Exchange
Cellar Door
The Riverfront

With performances popping up in these spaces, the festival creates a dynamic and accessible atmosphere, allowing audiences to explore different venues while enjoying a variety of performances.

Tickets & How to Get Involved

Audiences can grab a Weekend Pass wristband for as little as £10 for Early birds and £15 for full price, making this one of the most affordable ways to experience live performance in the city.
