Minnesota Fringe Festival

Minnesota Fringe connects adventurous artists with adventurous audiences by creating open, supportive forums for free and diverse expression. Through our summer festival and dynamic programs, Fringe is an artistic disruptor for local and touring artists to take bold risks, develop new ideas, and hoist themselves to the next rung of their artistic ladder. Our flagship Festival has distributed $2.5 million+ to artists over the last decade and was recently awarded City Pages’ Best Festival.

Minnesota Fringe is a Minneapolis­ based nonprofit organization with a mission to connect adventurous artists with adventurous audiences.
