The Guelph Fringe Festival is a “boutique” performing arts festival. Our venues are not traditional theatre spaces. We have partnered with Red Brick Café and Silence Sounds, two great locations that we transform into mini-theatres for the week of the festival. All of our locations are in Downtown Guelph and only a short walk apart. This is one of the wonderful things about the festival. Artists and patrons are constantly meeting up and sharing in the collective experience.
GFF also runs Fireflies on the Fringe, a curated theatre festival for young audiences.
GFF is volunteer run. Twelve passionate committee members work year-round to bring the festival to life.
Artists interested in performing in the festival should visit the WEBSITE for all the festival information and application process.
