Summer Sundae Fringe Festival (also called the Summer Sundae Fringe) was an annual music festival, running from 2006 to 2010 and held in Leicester, England, which focused on showcasing artistic talents and communities within the city of Leicester. It was created by Andy Black and Richard Haswell 〔http://hangout.altsounds.com/features/149490-lowdown-andy-black-popty-ping-records.html〕〔http://www.leicestermercury.co.uk/Summer-Sundae-Showcase-gig-raise-funds-Leicester-Mercury-Loros-Appeal/story-12034623-detail/story.html〕〔http://www.efestivals.co.uk/festivals/summersundae/2009/interview-richardhaswellb.shtml〕〔http://news.leicester.gov.uk/newsArchiveDetail.aspx?Id=x9404〕 and subsequently run and organised with the help of the Leicestershire based music forum Pineapster, who strove 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 grew year on year (until 2010), to a two-week showcase of musical talents, in a wide variety of venues and locations across Leicester. The fringe festival was scheduled to occur annually across the first two weeks of August each year. The fringe traditionally culminated with a series of warm up parties, across Leicester city centre, occurring 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 donated their time and services for free. Tickets were sold for Fringe Thursday and had to be exchanged for a wristband to allow bus entry. The event occurred for the last time in 2010. ==Size== The 2006 warm up party sold out to 360 people. The 2010 Fringe Thursday events sold over 2500 tickets. A grand total of nearly £25,000 was raised for LOROS across the festival's five-year history. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Summer Sundae Fringe Festival」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
