Welcome to the 2016 St-Ambroise Montreal FRINGE Festival in Montreal, Quebec!
At the heart of one of Plateau-Mont-Royal’s old villages, at the heart of the year, the timeless fringes rise again and pitch their large caravan of fun– simultaneously marking the start of our fabulous summer of festivals. The FRINGE reveals itself, yearly, as a manifestation of Montreal’s eternal youth, happily and fearlessly in your face. Inventive and creative, utterly uninhibited, comfortable in all senses of the word and in both languages, open to the world and confidant, ready for anything up to and including the risks of fate: may its energy infect us all.
In a world of global chaos, we need the happy chaos of the FRINGE to tie us to our community and remind us that everything is alright in the world. In November 2016, the Canadian Association of FRINGE Festivals plays host to the FRINGE World Congress in Montreal. This event, created by the Edinburgh FRINGE, is a meeting for FRINGE producers from around the world. Typically held in Edinburgh, as part of the Edinburgh FRINGE, this year’s event comes to Canada to see what makes us tick. The Canadian Association of FRINGE Festivals has created a unique but simple recipe for FRINGE success – even the Mother of all FRINGE Festivals, Edinburgh, wants to know what’s in the special sauce.
Come play at the FRINGE. It’s cheap and it’s easy. With 800+ performances by 500+ artists, fringing is a festive adventure full of surprises. Canadian FRINGEs are open-access and uncensored events with affordable ticket prices for all. And artists keep 100% of their box office!
