Safety at Fringe
Remember your mask! Halifax Fringe has and will continue to prioritize accessibility and community care. We require masks indoors to keep each other safe. Together we can make our festival a safer space for everyone, including our immunocompromised patrons, artists, volunteers, and staff. If you forget yours, free masks will be available at each venue. Thank you for your care and support!
If you have any questions or concerns please contact Executive Director Sara Graham at sara@halifaxfringe.ca
