PHYSICAL ACCESS

Sydney Fringe takes place in independently run spaces all over this city. Accessibility varies from venue to venue.

Sydney Fringe has developed a unique 10-point physical access guide to best describe Physical Access in our many partner venues. More access instructions are available in this physical access chart. Please check with individual venues about parking.

Call the Sydney Fringe at 02 9550 6087 or email hq@sydneyfringe.com to enquire further about venue accessibility.

Accessibility Chart will be available when 2021 festival program is launched.
