Fringe Wilmington is a five-day, no-holds-barred celebration of unconventional and experimental art in all major art disciplines: performance art (theater, spoken word and music), visual art, and cinematic arts. The festival offers nightly after party activities, including outrageous musical acts, game shows, and more-all in the "fringe" spirit! Fringe Wilmington draws artists and audiences from several nearby metropolitan areas, including Philadelphia, New York, Baltimore, and Washington D.C. (all less than two hours away).
