Organise an Event

How can I get involved?
1. Plan your Event
A focus on Climate, Community & Justice is key – from talks to workshops, from art installations, to performances, to actions. It can be in-person, online or both.
2. Use the Climate Fringe Festival Logo
Add the Climate Fringe logo on any communications about your event – images, posters, social media posts, digital flyers, etc.
3. Add your event to our Calendar
Use our event uploader to add your event to our calendar. The event uploader will help you list all relevant information to promote your event.
Don’t forget to select ‘climate fringe festival’ and use our logo in your event image!
Please read our event moderation guidelines.
