Asheville Fringe Arts Festival

Asheville Fringe brings performing artists to venues across the city to explore the edges of their work, to collaborate across genres and to bring new and innovative performances to culturally adventurous audiences. Always the 3rd week of January, we have 16+ venues, 50+ artists, and dozens of shows, many of them free. Our festival is one of many Fringe Festivals around the world, and part of the US Association of Fringe Festivals.
