We’ve been so excited to see so many of your friendly faces dropping by FringeWORKS at Tandanya, taking part in our Professional Development sessions and grabbing a bite at our Fringe Feasts over the last week.

Along with Support Act, Adelaide Fringe is offering wellbeing sessions for First Nations Fringe artists this Festival. If you need support with your mental health and wellbeing throughout the festival, please reach out. These sessions will be held in a culturally safe space, where you can talk freely about what you’re experiencing and any worries you may have.

We recognise the importance of First Nations people being able to speak with an Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander Clinician, or one with cultural awareness training, who has experience with individuals and families, and who understands the challenges you may face.

Donation Day thank you by The Coconuts.

Wednesday was the Adelaide Fringe Foundation’s very first Donation Day and we raised a massive $40,000! A heartfelt thank you to our matching day partners Lumo Energy SA and Novatech Creative Event Technology who each contributed $10,000 towards our goal!

These funds will be allocated to the Artist Fund and the Community Fund to help remove barriers for artists, audiences and the community to ensure the Adelaide Fringe is a festival all have a chance to enjoy. 

Adelaide Fringe wouldn't be possible without our Partners.
