In 2005 Prague Fringe hosted Fringe Comedy Nights in the winter months to keep Fringe alive throughout the year. We presented ADAM HILLS, JULIA MORRIS, STEPHEN FROST AND THE IMPRO ALLSTARS, DAVID O'DOHERTY, DANNY BHOY, SCOTT CAPURRO, TOPPING AND BUTCH and more.
Founded in 2002, Prague Fringe Festival is the longest-running festival of English-language theatre, comedy and performance in continental Europe. It takes place annually in May in the centre of the historical Malá Strana (Little Quarter) district of Prague between Charles Bridge and Prague Castle.
