New Zealand Fringe Festival welcomes first-timers, one-off attendees, and seasoned Fringe fanatics!

NZ Fringe Festival is an open-access festival, which means that artists and performers are free to register their events without any barriers. Each year’s programme depends entirely on who decides to register and we’re lucky to always have a stunning array of talented people join us each year. It’s a real lucky dip of bold, daring and diverse works!

We welcome both local, national and international artists every year into our programme.

The Festival isn’t held in one singular location, rather a myriad of venues all across Te Whanganui-a-Tara partake in facilitating the Fringe. For example, we have had shows happening from seasoned arts venues such as Te Auaha, Hannah Playhouse, The Gryphon, to out-of-the-box spaces like the Wellington Zoo, Botanic Gardens and even a board games cafe… anything is possible!

 

TAKE A RISK AND HAVE FUN.

Step out of your comfort zone. Go to shows you wouldn’t normally go to. You never know, you just might discover something new about yourself. The most important part of Fringe is getting out there and having fun.

 

VISIT THE FRINGE BOX OFFICE.

We are Located at 17 Allen Street, Te Aro, Wellington. Our Box Office typically opens in early February, a week before the festival. Outside of festival seasons, our office is closed to the public.

 

TRY OUR LIMITED EDITION FRINGE BEER.

The stunning team at Garage Project release an annual flavour of “Beyond the Pale.” Now a Garage Project tradition, every year Beyond the Pale celebrates New Zealand’s own wonderful Fringe Festival with an unorthodox foray into the weird and wonderful! This is definitely a limited edition annual beer that is not to be missed.
