Main Content
Sponsors
The Swansea Fringe Festival is sponsored by the following:
FOUNDING PARTNERS
Tunetown
Tunetown is responsible for the rebirth of the Swansea Fringe; after successfully staging the 'Taste of the Fringe' pilot in 2004, Tunetown has established the 2005 event to provide a platform for the Fringe to grow and develop as a separate entity under the banner of a new not-for-profit company.
Swansea Arts Forum Trust
The Swansea Arts Forum Trust (SAFT) has supplied a range of in kind support for the Fringe, and also for the inaugural Taste of the Fringe event. Working in close partnership with Tunetown, SAFT has assisted in the growth of this new initiative as part of its commitment to developing the arts in Swansea.
PUBLIC FUNDERS
Urban Cultural Funding
The 2005 Fringe has received Urban Cultural Funds, which are Lottery funds channelled via the Millennium Commission.
Arts About Swansea
These funds have been provided via the Swansea Arts Consortium working under the Arts About Swansea banner.
City and County of Swansea
The Fringe is also sponsored by the City and County of Swansea Council, providing a wide range of in kind support for the project including provision of venues, publicity and officer support.
Arts and Business
Arts and Business have supported the Fringe through their mentoring scheme; Geraint Evans and Toby Townrow from NTL have provided marketing expertise to assist in the development of the 'Taste of the Fringe' in 2004 and subsequently the full Fringe festival in 2005. The collaboration through Arts and Business won an Arts and Business Award in 2005.
The 2005 Fringe has been supported by Tourism Swansea.
Communities First
The inaugural 'Taste of the Fringe' event in 2004 was supported by Communities First.
