Fringe looks a little different this year, but is still a fun and exciting festival that is COVID safe! We run for 31 days and nights and will operate within government guidelines that may be in place around travel restrictions and/or crowd limits at the time.
We need Fringe-goers to be open-minded and willing to experience Fringe within restrictions. Please follow COVID safe practices when attending Fringe events and help stop the spread.
Check in advance if your show requires a mask
Check if your event requires a mask. This icon indicates that sessions for this show are operating above 50% capacity and as per SA Health guidelines you should be prepared to wear a mask if required by venue staff.
Should masks be required, the venue will have masks available. However, we encourage you to bring your own.
Keep 1.5m from our nearest Fringe-goer
Avoid close contact and crowded places whenever you can, and aim to keep approximately 1.5 metres distance from those around you in the community.

Wash your hands
Practice good hand hygiene. Wash your hands often with soap and running water for at least 20 seconds. Dry them with paper towel or a hand dryer. Alternatively, use alcohol based hand sanitisers.
Please respect venue COVID guidelines
All venues are required to have approved COVID safe plans (or COVID Management plans if their capacities are higher) before they can open their doors. This is also a requirement of Adelaide Fringe venue registration.
SA Health does not dictate any requirements about the seating set up of a venue, some venues may choose to seat you checkerboard style, others will be allocated seating and many will be GA. Please listen to venue staff and follow their direction around the seating layout to ensure the venue is operating in accordance with their COVID Safe Plans.
Adelaide Fringe is in constant communication with all registered Adelaide Fringe venues and we are all working together to ensure we are following all Government and SA Health requirements to ensure patron safety.
Stay home if you are unwell
Please stay at home if you are unwell or if you are showing COVID symptoms.
