Each year in September, Sydney Fringe transforms unused spaces and unexpected corners of the city into places alive with performance, conversation and community. For emerging and independent artists, Sydney Fringe isn’t just a festival, it’s a launchpad. It’s where careers begin, stories ignite, and creative risks are celebrated.
“At its heart, Sydney Fringe is an extraordinary team of experts, working to resource artists with big ideas and little means. Put plainly, they actually make it possible to do the dream.”
– Cleo Rapture, Piss Be With You
“Behind the scenes, the Fringe team were endlessly generous, offering practical advice, marketing guidance, and a sense that no question was too small. It truly felt like being part of a creative ecosystem that wanted us to succeed.”
– Kersherka Sivakumaran, And What Will People Say?
