Creators of one of Glasgow’s most-loved festivals have announced an ‘alternative’ Southside Fringe for 2021, with Plugged In & Wired launching Friday 26th March.
Dedicated to supporting and encouraging creatives in the Southside, the virtual event will see over 50 acts like headliners Viv Gee, Becci Wallace and Cloud of Starlings share the virtual festival stage with some of the newest, brightest creatives the area has to offer. Following the cancellation of Southside Fringe’s 2020 edition due to the COVID-19 pandemic, organisers were determined to provide an outlet for comedy, music, spoken word, cabaret, literature, food and drink and more in 2021.
With assistance from Glasgow City Council via the Local Area Partnerships, Plugged In & Wired will provide a vital platform for creatives who deserve recognition for the work they've continued to produce through lockdown, including talent like cabbage carrying cabaret comedian Gabriel Featherstone, or writer and performer Sean Wai Keung who tackles issues of race and identity through his prose and spoken word.
As the biggest community organised event in Glasgow, the annual festival brings together like-minded artists and entertainers, connecting them with Southside businesses, venues and the community as a whole. The creativity and collaborative ethos of the festival ensures a stand-out event each and every year since 2013, raising the profile of Glasgow’s glorious Southside and all it has to offer.
Acts for Plugged In & Wired will be announced shortly via www.southsidefringe.org.uk
While we take every opportunity to ensure the details for Plugged In & Wired are accurate, we always advise that you contact the event organiser before setting out for the event to avoid disapointment. All information (whether in text or photographs) is given in good faith but should not be relied upon as being a statement of representation or fact.
