Tallinn Fringe Festival 2025 program launch: a month of unfiltered culture awaits
Published on
Get ready Tallinn! The program for the 9th edition of the Tallinn Fringe Festival goes live this Monday June 9th at 12:00 with more shows and venues being added every week. An explosion of theatre, comedy, music, cabaret, circus, poetry and visual art awaits.
This year’s Fringe runs from August 18 to September 18, 2025, transforming Tallinn into a creative playground for both local and international artists, across indoor and outdoor venues.
To celebrate the program launch, many shows have released a limited number of specially priced tickets. So whether you're into offbeat cabaret, genre-bending music, or bold new theatre, now’s the time to check out the lineup, find the performances that speak to you, and grab your tickets while the deals last.
“Tallinn Fringe is where the wicked, wild, and wonderful come to play,” says Kaisa Ling, Tallinn Fringe Artists Ambassador. “We welcome anyone brave enough to create and anyone curious enough to watch. There’s no gatekeeping — just art in its freest form.”
The unique open-access model of Tallinn Fringe ensures that if a performer secures a venue, they’re in the festival, creating a vibrant, ever-evolving celebration of the arts. With weekly program updates every Monday, artists and venues can still take part in this year's festival.
In 2024, the festival featured over 120 shows across 21 venues, attracting more than 10,000 attendees. 2025 promises to be even bigger, bolder and more unforgettable.
The festival is co-organised by Fringe Estonia OÜ and Hoplaa MTÜ with support from Visit Estonia, Tallinn City, the Australian Embassy Estonia, many local venues and arts patrons.
