United States Association of Fringe Festivals

New York International Fringe Festival (FringeNYC)

FringeNYC is the largest multi-arts festival in North America. In addition to 1000+ performances, FringeNYC includes FringeU, FringeJR, FringeAL FRESCO, FringeART, FringeCLUB and FringeCENTRAL. “The biggest, boldest, most beneficent theater event” - Paper Magazine "A vibrant gallery of performance art has settled the question of whether a festival of drama in its rawest forms could make a mark in such a theater-saturated town…a crash refresher course in the intimacy and spontaneity that drain away so rapidly from grander theatrical ventures - a mirror on the culture." -The New York Times
