DENVER FRINGE FESTIVALThe Denver Fringe Festival is an open-application festival designed to support all genres of performance arts and to attract bold, progressive artistry that is on the fringes of the mainstream theatre tradition. We support independent and emerging artists by encouraging new work, providing a variety of performance venues, promoting the festival and selling advance tickets online. We also support open access to the arts by making sure people can enjoy bold, original performance – theatre, comedy, improv, cabaret, dance, physical theatre and circus arts – at an affordable price.
