This July, VAULT Creative Arts taking over The Glitch in Waterloo for HIGHLIGHT, a jam-packed preview festival showcasing the most exciting theatre, comedy, and live performance heading to the Edinburgh Fringe. Highlighting it so you don't have to. Think of it as Edinburgh, but with better weather. Probably. And less walking (definitely.)

For the whole of July, The Glitch becomes London's unofficial pre-Fringe headquarters - a place to catch boundary-pushing new work before it goes north and conquers the world. There will be parties. There will be panels. There will be shows that'll make you laugh and maybe even cry and maybe do both at the same time.

HIGHLIGHT kicks off and closes with parties (because of course it does), with panels, special events, and a full programme of shows packed in between. Whether you're an artist gearing up for Edinburgh or an audience member who just wants to see brilliant work first and closer to your doorstep - this is your festival.

HIGHLIGHT Festival. The Glitch, Waterloo. July 2026. Events run Monday 1 July - Monday 27 July. Shows at 17.30, 19.00, 20.30, and 22.00 on Fridays and Saturdays Tickets from £4.50.
