Applications Open!
Applications are open! There are a lot of new things this year, so make sure you read up on everything before you apply! The best place to start is 2019 Performers Page.
New things this year: 1. New Fringe location. We're moving to the East Liberty, Bloomfield, Garfield and Friendship area on Penn Ave. We have a map of the "Fringe Zone" on the 2019 Performers Page. 2. New festival model. We are changing to an Edinburgh, Hollywood, Rochester Fringe model. Basically this means we don't run the venues. The venues, and venue managers run the venue. You'll apply to them through our new backend system. We hope this will allow more awesomeness into the fringe! 3. New backend system. To facilitate this move to the new model, we have adapted the Hollywood Fringe backend software. It may be a bit confusing at first, so please ask us if you need help. In the end, we think this will give performers more access to ticket sales, and a way to update their web listings on their own, and even have ads on the website. After you apply, you will be given access to the backend system. To start the application process, select the "Apply Here!" button below!

Pittsburgh Fringe Manifesto
(For the visually impaired, the video above is mostly pictures from past festivals - primarily our first year - with some text. The text reads as follows: Pittsburgh Fringe Manifesto, We believe the arts should be for all, The Fringe community can learn from each other, Together we are stronger. Pittsburgh Fringe #makeityourfringe)
FYI: This is a video from our 2nd year. So it is here mostly for nostalgic purposes! The #makeityourfringe hashtag is not our main hashtag anymore. We prefer that you use #pghfringe now! Thank you! /
