Orlando Gears Up for the Exciting 34th Annual International Theatre Festival

Excitement is in the air as Orlando prepares for its beloved 34th Annual International Fringe Theatre Festival, set to grace the city from May 13 to 26, 2025. This year’s theme, “Let Your Fringe Flag Fly!”, invites creativity and expression, promising to be a sensational celebration of arts and culture.

Where to Catch All the Action

The festival will take over the beautiful Loch Haven Park, creating an immersive cultural experience for all attendees. Over the span of 14 exhilarating days, the festival will feature more than 1,000 ticketed performances that dive deep into various genres, including theatre, dance, spoken word, musicals, and even a good dose of comedy. It’s a true melting pot of talent, showcasing local, national, and international artists in a fantastic setting.

Fun for Everyone

But that’s not all, folks! The Orlando Fringe is known for its heart, and this year is no exception. In addition to the ticketed shows, guests can enjoy fantastic free experiences throughout the festival. You can look forward to a lively outdoor music festival, where you can groove along to some great tunes. If you’re an art lover, don’t miss the Visual Fringe, which will feature stunning art pieces available for sale directly from the artists. Plus, the little ones haven’t been left out! Kids Fringe will delight young visitors with enchanting play and entertainment throughout the weekends, making it fun for the whole family.

Celebrating Creativity Without Boundaries

What sets Orlando Fringe apart is its commitment to being 100% uncensored, 100% unjuried, 100% accessible, and 100% inclusive. This makes it the longest-running Fringe theatre festival in the United States, a true beacon of artistic freedom. Every penny of ticket sales goes directly to the artists, reinforcing the festival’s vibrant community spirit.

Exploring the Festival Venues

This year, attendees can explore performances at five exciting venues: the central Visual Fringe HQ at the Lowndes Shakespeare Center, four venues at the Orlando Family Stage, and engaging activities for kids at the Orlando Garden Club. For those looking for something a bit different, there are Bring Your Own Venue (BYOV) options, with spots like Renaissance Theatre Company, The Starlite Room @ Savoy and the new Ten10 Brewing Co. joining the roster.

New Experiences Await

This year’s festival will introduce an Outdoor Stage that promises new entertainers and an array of food options; you can expect elevated beverage offerings to keep you refreshed while enjoying the performances. Attendees will receive digital and printed program guides in partnership with Watermark Out News, helping you navigate the plethora of activities. Plus, enhanced box offices will be available at the main venues to cater to your needs.

Underlining Dates to Remember

Mark your calendars! Key dates for the festival include an early tease of local artists performing on April 14 at Orlando Shakes, followed by the official festival opening with a ribbon-cutting ceremony on May 13. The main event will run from May 14 to 26, with the highly anticipated Patrons Pick Day and closing ceremonies wrapping things up on May 26.

A Community of Artists and Freedom

The Orlando Fringe thrives on fostering camaraderie among artists and audiences alike. As a proud member of several associations, including the Canadian Association of Fringe Festivals (CAFF) and the World Fringe Association, it adheres to vital mandates on artistic freedoms. Operating as a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, support from the Orange County Government, the City of Orlando, and the United Arts of Central Florida keeps this beloved festival thriving.

Wrap-Up

So, gather your friends and family and head down to Orlando this May to join the celebrations of individuality, boldness, and unlimited creative expression. The Orlando International Fringe Theatre Festival is calling your name, and it promises to be a truly unforgettable experience. Don’t miss your chance to let your own Fringe flag fly!
