New Orleans has always been a city that embraces artists, where creativity has flourished and gravitated. These are the roots of the New Orleans Fringe Festival – the festival of the wild, weird, fresh, and original. The Festival provides a forum for emerging and established performing artists to do their creative thing -- whatever it is -- at an annual multi-day, multi-venue event that is affordable and accessible to the community.
