Welcome to the Atlanta Fringe Festival
Est. 2012
Since 2012, the Atlanta Fringe has curated an annual festival featuring live theatre, dance, comedy, storytelling, puppetry, and more from all over the world and the Atlanta, Georgia area, creating an artist-first atmosphere of collaboration and joy.
HUGE NEWS FOR OUR 2025 FESTIVAL!
We’ve been growing for years now, so for our 13th year we’re taking a leap and it’s a BIG one. We’re DOUBLING the length of the festival from one to TWO WEEKS which will allow us to expand our artist slots from 24 to 59 productions, each with six performance slots. More opportunities for more artists, and more chances for audiences to find them!
Details to remember for artists:
- Submissions will be open from December 1 – January 22, 2025.
- Lottery drawing will take place January 24, 2025.
- Festival will run May 27 – June 8, 2025.
- We will still select artists via blind, unjuried lottery, but submissions will be split into two categories: 50% Georgia-based, 50% touring artists.
- Production fees will now be tiered, based on venue seating capacity.
If you’re not an artist, keep an eye on this space for opportunities to get involved (there will be PLENTY.) You can get free tickets by hosting a touring artist in your home, apply for paid gigs, volunteer, donate, and much much more!
