ONWARD TOURING

Here & Now nurtures new relationships between artists making contemporary performance in England and international partners.

Alongside the showcase moment in Edinburgh, we work year round to encourage international touring opportunities for the showcased artists.

For artists, we offer advice and support with strategy, relationship building, logistics and budgeting. We also encourage presenters to join-up touring and engage further partners through our onward touring investments.

We've created a series of case studies to share some examples of the different journeys showcased artists have been on since their inclusion in Horizon or Here & Now, how we have helped them, and what it has meant for their careers.

"I love getting a chance to see the work and meet the artists/producers. Even if it's not something I can book right now I'm able to start the relationship, and that's a forever opportunity."

" I can see Here and Now increasing its reputation as the go-to delegate moment for international programmers. The platform positively impacts both the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and the reputation of work created in England, which has positive reverberations for the rest of the UK."
