Being an artist at Adelaide Fringe

How exciting! Just like Edinburgh Fringe, as an open access, non-curated festival, Adelaide Fringe is for everyone! Every year, our program is made up of eclectic and vibrant shows spanning cabaret, theatre, comedy, circus, music, visual arts, workshops and so much more.

And beyond being a platform to present work to audiences, Adelaide Fringe artists and producers can access support from our marketing team, upskill through our Professional Development program, and opt into our Honey Pot program, which puts your work in the front of entertainment programmers to take your work even further.
