Funding to support Scotland-based performing artists to take up new international touring opportunities as a direct result of their show being seen as part of the Edinburgh Fringe.
One of the key aims of Made in Scotland is to maximise the benefit for Scottish artists on the international platform that is the Edinburgh Fringe.
As well as supporting the annual showcase of music, dance and theatre work during the Fringe each year, Made in Scotland also has separate funding available to enable performing artists, bands and ensembles based in Scotland to take up new international touring opportunities for work programmed as a direct result of the inviting promoter seeing the work at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
Who can apply to the Made in Scotland Onward International Touring Fund?
The Made in Scotland Onward Touring fund is open to any individual or company based in Scotland which has presented a professional piece of theatre, dance or music at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe between the years 2015 to 2021 and which, as a result, was seen, and programmed, by an international presenter for the first time.
What is the overall budget and how much can I apply for?
The total amount available for the Made in Scotland Onward International Touring programme will be in the region of £100,000.
The funding available through this programme is limited, so support will not cover the full costs of the international presentation. This fund exists to support costs linked to flights, freight, visas and the translation of marketing materials. Other costs are expected to be met by the inviting promoter (we expect proposals to demonstrate significant financial commitment from the international promoter).
Deadline
Whilst there are no deadlines for this fund, and you can apply at any time (until the budget is fully allocated) you must apply at least eight weeks before you are due to travel.
This funding is designed to help support international invitations that artists, companies and musicians may receive directly from their performances during the Fringe each year.
