SUMMARY:Durham Free Fringe
DESCRIPTION:Durham Free Fringe aims to offer performance spots to all who apply\, which has been made possible by the addition of two venues. Redhills Durham Miners Hall will be the hub for the many spoken word acts taking part. Meanwhile\, The Market Tavern joins The Holy GrAle as a second pub-based venue\, and these spaces will host the majority of music events. The Holy GrAle and Market Tavern will begin hosting events on Wednesday 29th and Thursday 30th July\, Redhills will then run from Friday 31st July to Sunday 2nd August. The Sunday will also feature a music finale at the Holy GrAle. \nHere’s the line up for 1st August: \nThe I’m OK Project – Richard Eyers\nMental health has never been more important. I’m OK is a series of photographs and words from North East photographer and storyteller\, Richard Eyers and the people that he meets. The words are their own; what they have chosen to share. They are unedited. Each portrait is inspired by conversation and the words that have been shared. Exhibition in the Miners’ Hall cinema room\, with talks at points through the day. From 3.00 p.m. \n  \nErasmus Croc’s and Aaron Wright’s Guide To Life\nErasmus Croc is the world’s first poetry crocodile\, performing alongside his young protégé\, Aaron Wright. Together they present their guide to life\, the universe and everything through spoken word\, poetry\, low-tech props and bubbles. Expect tales of possessed tumble dryers\, blinged-up slugs and other surreal wonders. Soak in sumptuous visuals and audacious auditory skills as a crocodilian delivers rhythm and rhyme\, aided and abetted by his star pupil. A playful\, poetic\, and joyfully strange Fringe experience. 3.25 p.m. (45 min) \n  \nJohn Hobson: Funny Onion\nA standup comedy performance poetry show featuring poems about vegetables as well as Rebecker the double decker\, a useless football referee and a stovepipe hat. Funny Onion made its debut earlier this year in Sheffield to a sell-out audience and has played at multiple venues at the Buxton Festival Fringe during July. 4.15 p.m. (60 mins) \n  \nLEDGE: Principles of the Mind\nWhat if the impossible was just a matter of belief? Join psychological entertainer Ledge as he demonstrates the hidden powers of YOUR mind through stunning mentalism. In this 45-minute journey\, discover how belief\, visualization\, silence\, and change shape reality itself. You’ll witness thoughts read\, predictions revealed\, and the boundaries between possible and impossible blur. This isn’t just a show—it’s proof of what becomes possible when you truly believe. Prepare to question everything you think you know. 5.30 p.m. (45 mins) \n  \nStories from the Streets: Dan Husband\n‘Stories from the Streets’ strays away from the one hour show to be broken down across a weekend\, whilst allowing other spoken word talent and opportunity to showcase their style alongside me! Think less all my ramblings\, think more ‘Husband Material presents:’ D.L. ‘Dan’ Husband is a North East England born & bred writer\, poet and performer. With two collections (HMVI & HMV II) published alongside a score of individual pieces in various publications\, he pens poetry and prose with acid in the inkwell & compassion in the heart. Unflinching writing and performances at various venues and Fringe festivals discussing addiction\, homelessness\, life\, love\, growth and all that lies in between. He has also featured on BBC upload ‘best of 2025’ show and the Northern Voices podcast. “He’s absolutely FAB”  (Emma Millen\, BBC UPLOAD). Guests: Gary the Hat\, Gaeran Southern\, Kev Robson\, Adam Berkeley\, 6.15 p.m. (10 min) \nGeorgia Goodson: Terrible Beautiful\nThings Georgia Goodson Georgia builds a set around her latest publication\, with bits and pieces thrown in from the previous\, as well as some unpublished work that is building for a potential future release. Big themes of grief\, nature\, loss\, love. 6.30 (30 min) \n  \nDomesticon.\nAn Antifragile Poetry Play Pip McDonald / The Notorious PIP An experimental solo spoken word & comedy performance unpacking lived (and dead) experience of domesticity\, consumerism\, grief\, mothers (mams)\, relationships\, supermarkets\, education\, and health through performative poetic outputs. Trigger warnings: grief\, death and Tesco. 7.15 p.m. \n  \nMwelwa Chilekwa: ReSIStance\nWomen are the villains and society is the judge\, jury and executioner. Our heads lay bare on the guillotine and with one false move… But this show changes our story and empowers others. A passionate and emotive one-woman show featuring poetry to SMASH the patriarchy. From light-hearted topics like school life and dating to the more darker aspects: abuse and sexual assault. Trigger warning for those topics\, this is how the world is. Experiences far too many women and girls\, myself included\, face. Why? Together\, no matter your gender\, we are going to put the sis in resistance! 8.20 p.m. (60 min)

From 3.00 p.m. \n  \nDomesticon.\nAn experimental solo spoken word & comedy performance unpacking lived (and dead) experience of domesticity\, consumerism\, grief\, mothers (mams)\, relationships\, supermarkets\, education\, and health through performative poetic outputs.

Not anymore. A sharp\, funny spoken word show about women taking up space and reclaiming their voice. Raised to keep the peace\, Anne-Marie learned early that staying small meant staying safe – but at what cost? Through honest and at times light-hearted spoken word\, she draws on her experience of growing up around domestic violence and unpicks the invisible rules that teach girls and women to be polite\, quiet and accommodating. But no more. The “good girl” is revolting. 6.00 p.m. (45 min) \n  \nGeorgia Goodson: Terrible Beautiful Things\nGeorgia builds a set around her latest publication\, with bits and pieces thrown in from the previous\, as well as some unpublished work that is building for a potential future release.

Her work often illuminates how deeply personal experiences are often universally felt and she doesn’t shy away from the grisly details. Grab her anytime she’s not on stage to buy a QR code to download her audio album and take some pieces of her home! 8.00 p.m. (30 mins) \n  \nKeith Ford\nKeith Ford is responsible for: 6% of the musical talent in Mr Ford and Mr Gibbs; 11% of the beauty and brains in Mr Ford and Mrs Ford; 3% of the inherent hiphoprisy in Geordie Genes; 49% of the cheerfulness in DJ Cheap and Cheerful; 17.3% of Speech Therapy’s hosting history; 0.2% of his own browsing history. However\, he is entirely 100% responsible for any of the nonsense in his poetry. You do the math…. 8.35 p.m (60 min)

SUMMARY:Mark Thomas: 40 in Stand-Up Years
DESCRIPTION:Phil McIntyre Live Ltd by arrangement with Tin Cat Entertainment proudly presents:  \n  \nMark Thomas\n40 in Stand-Up Years\n  \nWhat?! Mark Thomas has been ‘standing up’ for 40 years? Impossible!! But how old does that make you…? Alas it is true; one of our oldest surviving alternative comics celebrates 40 years at the mic. \n  \nSo\, here’s what he has done so far in numbers; performed comedy for 40 years\, won 8 awards for performing\, 4 for human rights work and 1 he invented for himself\, made 6 series of the Mark Thomas Comedy Product (Channel 4)\, written 6 books and 5 play scripts\, made 5 series of the Manifesto for Radio 4\, made 3 Dispatches for Channel 4\, sued the police (and won) 3 times\, curated and authored 2 art exhibitions with artist Tracey Moberly and had 1 Guinness World Record for holding 20 protests in 24 hours. \n  \nIf that’s not enough\, he’s also walked 724km around the length of the Israel Wall in the West Bank\, been credited with changing the law on tax avoidance\, started a comedy club in Palestine with Dr Sam Beale and campaigned successfully for things like trade union recognition for cinema workers and getting multinationals to change their practices. You’re right\, there’s more\, but your attention is running out and we’re running out of space. So let’s just say he’s generally mucked about trying to have fun and upset the right people…which he is really\, really good at. \n  \nSo basically expect a taster menu of government and personal mayhem\, jokes\, rants and a personal state of the nation broadcast as he tries to turn ‘what the f*ck is going on’ into a cogent hour of stand-up. \n  \n★★★★★ “Once again shooting laughter-laden political bullets from the lip” \nTHE RECS \n  \n★★★★★ “Mark Thomas is a firebrand of a clown. The energy he brings to the room is infectious…very\, very funny” \nCLOWNSTER \n  \n★★★★ “The strong ratio of hard-hitting matter to gag-rich mirth is a feat that makes other stand-up look idling and irrelevant” \nTHE TELEGRAPH \n  \nThis event is a fundraiser for the Durham Miners Gala. All proceeds will support the world’s biggest celebration of working class culture.

SUMMARY:Durham Folk Festival
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to Durham Folk Festival!\nFirst\, a little introduction. If you weren’t aware of Durham Folk Festival till now\, that’s not surprising! Till very recently they were Hartlepool Folk Festival. \nFounded in 2015\, for ten years HFF was the home of magical happenings\, unforgettable experiences and the very finest in folk music. Unfortunately\, 2025 saw the closure of the Borough Hall\, their mainstage venue\, which put the future of the festival at risk. With real regret\, they concluded that the only way forward was to explore alternative locations. \nFestival Organiser Joanie Crump said\, “Sad as we are to leave Hartlepool\, we’re delighted to have found a new home – and what a home! From medieval architecture to cobblestone streets\, Durham transports you back in time. Whether it’s the Land of the Prince Bishops or the beating heart of the Durham coalfield\, there is so much to discover. Join us as we reveal all that this sublime location has to offer\, with its two UNESCO World Heritage Sites\, spectacular settings and boundless charm. And\, of course\, the first-class events\, fabulous music and warm welcome you came to expect at Hartlepool!” \nFor further information about Durham Folk Festival\, click here. \nFor Weekend Tickets\, click here.

Originally from the southern shores of Lough Neagh\, his music is deeply rooted in place — shaped by the lough\, the communities that raised him\, and the stories he feels compelled to pass on. Barry holds the current title of Folk Album of the Year for Curlew’s Cry. \nNext up is Lí Ban. Winner of both RTE and BBC Radio’s Folk Singer of the Year title\, Ríoghnach Connolly collaborates here with family – aunts\, uncles and cousins – to interpret and share the traditions of Lough Neagh. The ties that bind tradition and people are writ large\, as this Armagh clan serve up a repertoire seldom heard outside its own locale. This extends to the instrumentation\, which includes the rare\, wire-strung Downhill Harp. \nThis is a chance to experience music steeped in regional heritage\, forged where generations fished the waters\, built boats and composed songs that were woven into a once-vibrant tradition. \nClick Here for Tickets

SUMMARY:Banter; Jez Lowe; Sam Carter sings Nic Jones
DESCRIPTION:Banter are four fine musicians rooted firmly in traditional English music\, but who enjoy testing the limits: Simon Care on melodeon & concertina\, Nina Zella on keyboards & vocals\, Tim Walker on drums\, percussion\, brass\, guitar\, bass & vocals and Mark Jolley on bass\, fiddle\, guitar & vocals. \nAlthough just four people\, they create a huge sound and have been described as ‘the world’s smallest big band’. \nWe couldn’t possibly have our first festival in our new home without County Durham’s most beloved folk singer. Over the past four decades\, Jez Lowe has been one of the UK’s best –-and busiest – singer-songwriters. His songs often contain powerful social commentary\, wrapped up in lyrical brilliance and with more than a smattering of North East humour. Those who have recorded Jez’s songs include Fairport Convention\, The Dubliners\, The Unthanks\, The Young Uns\, Bob Fox\, Liam Clancy\, The Black Family and many more. \nSam Carter creates a loving tribute to one of the genre’s most influential artists. Nic Jones’ innovative\, groundbreaking guitar style and profoundly emotive singing have inspired generations of folk musicians\, and his seminal album\, Penguin Eggs\, remains a treasured masterpiece over four decades later. \nHailed by fellow folk artist Jon Boden as “the finest English-style fingerpicking guitarist of his generation\,” Sam is uniquely positioned to interpret this revered repertoire. This performance presents a rare opportunity to experience Nic Jones’ timeless songs\, brought to life on stage by a master of the folk tradition. \nClick Here for Tickets

SUMMARY:Windborne; Angeline Morrison
DESCRIPTION:Joining us from New England in the USA\, Windborne’s music has deep roots in traditions of vocal harmony. Lauren Breunig\, Jeremy Carter-Gordon\, Lynn Rowan\, and Will Rowan share a vibrant energy onstage with a blending of voices that can only come from decades of vocal collaboration. But there’s another\, crucial dimension to Windborne that roots their artistry. They are advocates of folk music’s long alliance with social activism\, Labour and civil rights. Their latest project\, Of Hard Times & Harmony\, explores themes of social consciousness\, as well as delivering moments of true hilarity and wit. \n  \nBBC Radio Scotland’s Travelling Folk describes Windborne as “subverting expectations and redefining the genre… absolutely phenomenal!” \n  \nRecently hailed as one of MOJO’s ‘voices taking folk into the future’\, Angeline Morrison is a singer\, multi-instrumentalist and songwriter whose work combines a deep love of traditional song\, a deep respect for the hidden ancestral voices of Old Albion\, and explorations of diaspora\, nation and history. Angeline has played the acoustic stage at Glastonbury and appeared on BBC2’s Later With Jools Holland. In May 2022\, her album The Brown Girl and Other Folk Songs was voted The Guardian’s Folk Album of the Month. The Sorrow Songs: Folk Songs of Black British Experience traces the historic Black presence in Britain which dates back to at least Roman times\, yet is often hidden\, forgotten or unacknowledged. In December 2022 The Sorrow Songs was voted No 1 Folk album of the year in The Guardian. \nClick Here for Tickets
