Come curious. Become a Fringer.

New to Fringe? Fringe-curious? Ready to unlock your next level of Fringing? 

Discover Fringe is the BEST way to explore North America's largest, longest-running Fringe Theatre Festival. Explore the Festival Grounds on a guided tour, hear behind-the-scenes stories, see a show, grab a drink, and get insider tips from expert Fringers. 

You pick the genre. We'll pick the show. Together, we'll take a chance on something unexpected.

• A ticket to a live theatre performance – you pick the genre, we'll pick the show!

• A copy of the 2026 printed 152-page Festival Guide
• A copy of The Fringers' Almanac, our book celebrating the stories and legacy of Edmonton Fringe
• BONUS! Linger a little longer and chat with our expert Volunteers. They'll share their favourite tips, tricks, and advice to help you plan the rest of your Fringe adventure.
