Fringe Festival
A Fringe Festival is an arts festival that showcases a variety of performances, including theater, dance, music, and visual arts. These festivals often feature independent artists and companies, providing a platform for experimental and innovative works that may not fit into traditional venues. The term "fringe" refers to the idea of being on the outskirts or margins of mainstream culture.
Typically held in cities around the world, Fringe Festivals encourage creativity and diversity in the arts. They often operate on a lottery or open-access model, allowing anyone to apply to perform. This inclusivity fosters a vibrant atmosphere where audiences can discover new talent and unique artistic expressions.
