Street Performers

Calling Street Performers! Buskers! Street Artists!

Street performers bring life to the streets and corners of Adelaide. Adelaide Fringe offers the opportunity for local and international street performers, buskers, and entertainers to captivate and WOW audiences.

The East End Unleashed program welcomes street performers to perform on the bustling Rundle Street during the street's weekend road closures. Each season there are additional locations scattered throughout the city and beyond for street performers to perform and play.

Registering as a Street Performer ensures you are in the know and get the most out of your time at Adelaide Fringe.
Street Performer Registrations will open in late 2024.

Visa Support

If you are an international artist coming over for Adelaide Fringe we will help guide you through the visa process.
  • Adelaide Fringe will provide a Letter of Support, required as part of the visa application process.
  • Adelaide Fringe is a registered ACNC charity, which means the visa application fee will be waived – saving you $310!
  • Access to the FringeWORKS support team, including the Visa Coordinator who can help answer any tricky visa application questions.

Additional Performance Opportunities

We will pass your information on to councils, activations and events looking for street performers to Fringe-ify their events and activations. The online listing of registered street performers will also be used by Adelaide Fringe Producers when they require artists for Fringe-managed events.
