Supporting deaf performers and artists
When deaf artists and performers sign up to Edinburgh Deaf Festival, our dedicated team will be on hand to support you every step of the way. You will have full access to our venue services, a venue manager and box office service, marketing and technical support.
Registering with the Fringe
Edinburgh Deaf Festival will run alongside the Fringe each year, giving deaf performers the same level playing field as hearing peers. There are so many benefits to being part of the Fringe, which offers great opportunities to all performers to access arts industry services, awards, and reviewers, to name a few. By registering with Edinburgh Deaf Festival, we will give all performers the opportunity to choose whether they want to be part of the Fringe official programme or only entry as part of the Edinburgh Deaf Festival.
