  • Summer Sundae Fringe Festival (also called the Summer Sundae Fringe) is an annual music festival held in Leicester, England which focuses on showcasing artsitic communities within the city of Leicester. It is organised and run by the Leicestershire based music collective Pineapster, who strive to organise promoters, venues, organisers and musical acts to organise and run their own events in promotion of their own talents and showcase the best of the cities talent whilst fundraising for charity. The festival began as a one off warm up party in 2006 and has grown year on year since then, to a two week showcase of musical talents, in a wide variety of venues and locations across Leicester. The fringe festival is now scheduled to occur annually across the first two weeks of August each year. The fringe traditionally culminates with a series of warm up parties, across Leicester city centre, traditionally on the Thursday evening before the start of the Summer Sundae Weekender event. These warm up parties are formally titled `Fringe Thursday`, and are linked by an open top bus service, included within ticket price, which provides party goers with transport to move them from event to event. All artists appearing at Fringe Thursday events donate their time and services for free. Tickets are sold for Fringe Thursday and must be exchanged for a wristband to allow bus entry.
