The Canadian Fringe Festivals® are built on four principles:

1) No Artistic Direction. Artists are selected by lottery.

2) No Censorship. Artists have complete freedom to present ANYTHING.

3) Accessibility to artists. Anyone can apply to the lottery.

4) Accessibility to audience. Ticket prices are kept low and 100% of the ticket price is returned to the artists you see on stage.
