A week in, and Buxton Fringe is buzzing! The carnival drew the crowds on Saturday, and now punters left and right are wondering where next? for top tier entertainment. We have everything you need to know to make the most of what week 2 has to offer (and it's a lot!).

We're out and about across Buxton, weaving through Morris dancers and stray cats. We meet performers bringing ancient Greece, rural villages, and 127 one-liners to the Fringe, and we stop to chat with audience members fresh out of shows to hear what's been making them laugh, think and recommend.

🎙️ We'd love to hear from you, too. Seen a Fringe show? Send us a voice note with your review at buxtonfringeweekly@gmail.com or via speakpipe.com/BFW and you might feature in a future episode.
