Applications for the artsUCL Fringe Festival open on Monday 2 February 2026
Two weeks. One campus. Unlimited creativity
This June, the artsUCL Fringe Festival will bring campus to life with theatre, comedy, dance, cabaret, music, drag, stand‑up, musical theatre, and everything in between - come and experience anything, everything, everywhere.
Launching this year as part of the UCL200 celebrations, the artsUCL Fringe Festival will redefine Term 3 at UCL for years to come. Inspired by iconic Fringe festivals across the globe, this new celebration of performance aims to unleash the creative power of UCL students, champion every form of performance art, and turn our campus into a buzzing cultural playground - a truly inclusive space where everyone feels welcome!
From Monday 1 June - Saturday 13 June, the artsUCL Fringe Festival will run alongside the UCL200 Summer Festival, spreading across Mully’s, the Institute of Education, the Bloomsbury Studio, Camden People Theatre, and more.
Expect live busking between venues, pop‑up performances, buzzing bars, street‑food vibes, and the thrill of wandering into something unexpected. UCL will come alive over the summer with creativity, colour, and noise - this is the beginning of a new UCL tradition!
