The Melbourne Fringe Festival is back this October, with over 450 events to discover across the city from cutting-edge independent artists.
The city is your own art adventure menu, with three weeks of ground-breaking new events, art and bold ideas (and just a dollop of mischief and mayhem) set to bring out the cheeky and artistic spirit of Melbourne. With 20 days of comedy, cabaret, dance, drag, music, and the simply undefinable, there’s something for everyone at Fringe.
