The Fringe offers a stimulating environment for artists where there is room for creative encounters, cross-pollination and stimulation of artistic innovation without a jury. The Fringe wants to invite the public to join the participating artists on this adventure. The Amsterdam Fringe Festival distinguishes itself from other theater festivals with an open registration policy and from contemporary theater with an informal and accessible context. With that purpose in mind, the Fringe not only opens many doors to Amsterdam’s diverse performance venues (to), creators and groups, but also to a (new and) curious public.

Presentations, performances and acts which distinguish themselves from each other by going against the grain, being raw, political or simply on the cutting edge are welcome. Typically ‘fringe’ is that both the groups as well as the locations actively serve in promoting the performances and the artists. The festival offers support along the way with advice, organisational know-how and general publicity.
