The Atlanta Fringe Festival has announced their lineup for the 11th annual festival. This year features 28 groups from 9 different states as well as, the festival’s first international performers from Australia.

“We’re ecstatic about the response we got to this year’s call for artists,” said Executive Director Diana Brown. “Artists are ready to get back out there, and we’re proud of the reputation we’ve earned over the years as a festival that really takes care of its performers. This is an awesome group and I can’t wait to see what they do!” 

The artists that make up this year’s lineup were chosen, per festival tradition, via an unjuried lottery – literally pulled out of a hat from a pool of around 100 global submissions. Festival artists will be eligible for cash prizes for the favorite shows in various categories as selected by the audience, staff and a panel of judges from the Atlanta arts community.

The Atlanta Fringe Festival takes place from June 5-11, 2023 in venues throughout Little Five Points, East Atlanta Village, and Old Fourth Ward.
