Overview
Born in 2009, the Auckland Fringe Festival is an open access performing and visual arts festival. The annual three-week stint enables creative minds from around the country to present their work in an artistic environment where anything goes; as well as giving locals access to an intensified period of weird and wonderful arty experiences.
This year's Fringe officially kicks off on February 9 and will run until March 1 with an eclectic range of events taking over every nook and cranny across the city. Think: theatres, streets, parks, plazas, churches, halls, kitchens, lofts, basements, vaults, galleries, rooftops and silos.
Attendees can expect everything from: an interactive pavement whale stranding, a bachelesbian sex education lesson, a guided tour around 1980s Ponsonby, underground magic from a mind reading hotdog, and something called The Shittest Theatre You Will Ever See, among plenty of other things.
