MORE MONEY TO BE PAID TO ARTISTS IN FRINGE 2018 WE’RE HERE FOR ARTISTS!
Established in 2014 to raise cash for the Fringe stars of the future. Dozens of Australian artists have been awarded this much-needed funding to bring their Fringe fantasies to life. The fund has delivered more than $200,000 worth of grants and thanks to the generous support of our audiences, more than $85,500 has been awarded to independent artists in 2017 - our highest round of funding ever! You can donate whenever you buy FringeTIX.
Our staff and volunteers.
Thanks to almost $1million in funding from the State Government, Adelaide Fringe will become the most affordable Fringe festival in Australia for artists - this funding has allowed the Adelaide Fringe to abolish the inside charge for artists on tickets under $35 and halve the inside charge on tickets over $35.
FRINGE BOARD
In 2017, the Adelaide Fringe sold $16.2million worth of tickets. It is a huge injection into the arts. We aim to sell even more tickets in 2018!
David Minear CHAIRMAN Steve Grieve DEPUTY CHAIR Andrew Mailler TREASURER Jan Turbill Heidi Angove Lisa Bishop So what does this all mean? It means that Nicholas Linke Adelaide Fringe will retain less of the ticket Michelle Ryan price than ever before and will pay more of the David Pearson Box Office money to the artists who make the festival what it is.
