There could be some events on Penn Ave.  It is April, so it is hard to know what the weather will be.  But inquire if you have an idea, and we'll start talking to folks who has empty lots.

Your Great Idea:

Penn Ave,  Pittsburgh, PA 15---
Have an idea for a fun location?  Fringe's are known for having cool site specific shows!  Have an idea, or looking for something specific?  Email us to start the conversation!

We travel to fringe's all around and we've seen shows in pools, camping tents, cars (pretty popular actually), campers, bathrooms, elevators, shipping containers, bouncy castles, salons, restaurants (including and not including food), and even a musical in a hot tub.  You name it, it could work!  These types of shows often garner a lot of press attention too - so think about it!


PLUS MORE VENUES COMING SOON!!!

Didn't find something that worked for your show right away?  That's OK, new venues will probably still come on board.  I know we are talking to several galleries that intend to join us soon.  If you need something that isn't a gallery, and isn't listed here, please let us know, and we'll see what we can do!
