Family Fun For All Ages

Planning the perfect family outing for any occasion can feel overwhelming. Whether it be loading the kids into the stroller, making sure they have enough snacks, or timing naps, it can seem like there is a never-ending to-do list just to get your family out the door.

Here at Sydney Fringe, we want to make it that much easier for you to enjoy an affordable, fun family adventure. With tickets from just $16 – cheaper than a movie ticket – Fringe Kids programming is designed as entertainment that thrills the kids without boring the adults.

Shows are taking place all throughout Sydney, with the majority of shows happening in The Entertainment Quarter. Fringe Kids is designed to take the guesswork out of choosing kid friendly entertainment that can be enjoyable for the whole family.

Fringe Kids has shows that run throughout the entire two weeks of the spring school holidays from 27 September – 12 October, with additional shows scattered throughout the month of September. What makes this program special is its thoughtful curation. Every performance is specifically chosen or adapted with children in mind.

Interactive Performance/Circus:

These high-energy shows get kids moving and participating. Perfect for children who love physical comedy, acrobatics, and audience participation.
Fringe Picks: All Star Circus, A Bee Story and Camp Culture (winner of our Perth Fringe Tour Ready Award).

Music:

For families looking for shows that blend entertainment with music, Fringe Kids offers musical performances that introduce children to different instruments, rhythms, and cultural traditions.
Fringe Pick: The stars of ABC Kids TV in Lah-Lah Meets Sydney Youth Orchestra is a highlight in this category, combining familiar characters with live orchestral music.

Science/Discovery:

Bubble magic, crazy science and more make up this category, where learning becomes an adventure. These performances typically feature experiments, demonstrations, and activities that satisfy curious minds while maintaining the fun factor.
Fringe Picks: KABOOM!, The Flying Bubble Show & Grossed Out Game Show

Mums & Bubs:

We know how hard it can be to navigate attending a show with your baby. That’s why we have shows that cater specifically to babies and toddlers along with their caregivers.

Bubba Licious offers a display of colour, sound, light and movement for babies and toddlers. Monkski Mouse’s Baby Disco Dance Hall creates an energetic, music-filled environment where crawling, babbling, and moving around is not just tolerated but encouraged.

The beauty of Fringe Kids is within its diversity. Whether your child is fascinated by how things work, loves to move and dance, or just enjoys a good story, there’s a show designed to get their brains engaged and create lasting memories.
