Tramlines Fringe

474 free gigs · 38 venues · 4 days

The Fringe at Tramlines is Sheffield’s free festival-within-a-festival. While the main event fills Hillsborough Park, nearly five hundred free gigs take over the rest of the city from 23rd to 26th July 2026: pubs turning into all-day venues, breweries and beer halls booking swing bands, DIY spaces running punk marathons, gardens hosting folk sessions, and the open-air Fringe Stage on Devonshire Green anchoring it all.

No wristbands, no fences and, with a handful of ticketed exceptions, nothing to pay: just walk in. Below you’ll find the complete programme – every act, venue and set time – with editorial picks, day-by-day filtering, act search and a live map to help you plan a crawl. Each event links to its own page with times, the venue’s location and everything else on nearby.
