Newcastle Fringe Festival

It’s edgy, diverse, inspirational and super creative and it’s the biggest little fringe in Australia. Newy Fringe showcases a smorgasbord  of performing arts from Newcastle, Australia and the world, over 2 amazing weekends in March.

Although the heart of Fringe is Hamilton, this year we have so many amazing shows that we have spread into other parts - our venues stretch across Islington, Newcastle, Merewether and Adamstown.  Don't miss our captivating free event 'Park after Dark' on Saturday 16 March in Hamilton's beautiful Gregson Park.

Fringe caters for all interests –  Comedy, Theatre, Kids, Music, Dance, Cabaret, Burlesque, Spoken Word, Performance Art and Circus. There is something for everyone! Check out our program and get your tickets before they sell out!
