AND FINALLY

ALL FRINGE SHOWS START ON TIME! You should plan to be at your venue, ticket in hand, at least 15 minutes before show time. Latecomers MAY NOT be admitted, but that is a decision made by each performing company. It is theoretically, possible to purchase tickets in advance, and arrive late and be refused at that door if you are late and the artist does not allow late comers into their show. So be on time!

The Canadian Association of Fringe Festivals is built on four principles:

  1. No Artistic Direction. Artists are selected by ‘first come, first served’.
  2. No Censorship. Artists have complete freedom to present their work.
  3. Accessibility to artists. Anyone can apply to the Fringe.
  4. Accessibility to audience. Ticket prices are kept low and 100% of the ticket price is returned to the artists you see on stage.
