Being an Artist at Adelaide Fringe
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 you in front of entertainment programmers to take your work even further.
Onward touring through our Marketplace
Honey Pot is Adelaide Fringe’s International Marketplace. That means we support connections and run networking and pitching events that see work exported all over the world!
In 2026 Honey Pot hosted 388 industry delegates from 32 countries. Projected bookings from the season are expected to be $7M. Touring deals are taking Adelaide Fringe artists across Australia in theatres, on cruise ships, on television, and to more than 30 countries around the world.
