Stockholm Fringe Festival (STOFF) is a seven-day multidisciplinary arts festival, acting as a ‘stage’ for local and international artists to present their innovative work, ranging from performance to installation art and anything in between. All the events are coordinated as part of a multi-festival week in Stockholm in August 2024, which, in addition to the Stockholm Fringe Festival and the World Fringe Congress, also includes Scensveriges export festival Swedstage and the network Stolt Scenkonst.
