One of the oldest on the Canadian Fringe Festival circuit, Victoria’s Fringe Festival was also a founding member of the Canadian Association of Fringe Festivals (CAFF).

In keeping with CAFF’s guiding principles, shows in the Fringe are selected at random by lottery, uncensored, accessible to all artists and audiences, and 100% of the ticket price you pay will be returned directly to the artists you choose to see.

Intrepid will release the official festival program, schedule, tickets, and passes on August 1st!

Fringe organizers are also on the lookout for volunteers. If you want to help out and see some shows for free, click here.

Also, if you want an earlier taste of theatre, check out the Nanaimo Fringe Festival from August 10-20!
