Melbourne Fringe Festival

In October each year, Fringe Westside brings together artists, organisations and venues from Melbourne’s west for a fantastic program of live events.

Melbourne Fringe is the longest-running multi-arts festival in Victoria. Presenting over 450 events each year by Melbourne’s emerging and independent arts community – Fringe consistently provides new and relevant ways of supporting artists and engaging audiences.

The festival champions discovery and experimentation, supporting the development and presentation of works across every possible artform – from physical theatre to digital art, comedy and cabaret to installation, spoken word, circus and film.

Stay tuned for the next program announcement in 2024.
