Sydney Fringe Festival celebrates six years and announces new Festival Village

Sydney Fringe Festival, now in its sixth year, has announced its largest and most dynamic program yet. The largest independent arts festival in NSW will be presented from 1 to 30 September. This year’s iteration will see Sydney Fringe install a Festival Village, to be based in Erskineville and feature a range of pop-up spaces, shop fronts and street activations.

The sixth instalment of Sydney Fringe will breathe creative energy into the streets of the Inner West, with five cultural villages based in Newtown, Erskineville, Marrickville, Redfern and Surry Hills. More than 300 productions will be staged at 50 venues, including parlour games, magic shows, late-night libraries, comedies and music.  The festival will be celebrating local talent and encourage audiences to experience the independent arts of Sydney.
