Fringe on The Rocks EOI

Introducing Fringe on The Rocks, a bold new chapter for Sydney Fringe’s flagship programming.

Debuting in its newly reimagined form in 2026, Fringe on The Rocks transforms one of the city’s most iconic heritage precincts into a dynamic performance hub for ambitious, independent, and mid-career artists.

Sydney Fringe now invites Expressions of Interest for performance seasons across two remarkable, interconnected venues, 47 George Street and 6–8 Atherden Street, expansive, multi-level spaces that offer artists the freedom to create at scale, experiment with form, and shape immersive audience experiences. The venue will be available from 24 Aug – 3 Oct with exact dates to be confirmed.

Successful applicants will present seasons of  2 – 4 weeks within these buildings as part of the 2026 Sydney Fringe Festival. Artists may apply for a full-venue takeover or for specific levels/spaces that best suit their work.
