This is a first for our lovely city, and it’s shaping up to be a spectacular weekend filled with creativity and entertainment!

What’s a Fringe Festival, Anyway?

For those new to the idea, a fringe festival typically showcases a variety of performing arts that are outside the norm. Think of it as a vibrant celebration where the unexpected and innovative meet the traditional. From theater and dance to comedy and puppeteering, you’ll get a taste of everything that is uniquely Chattanooga.

What to Expect

This two-day festival is jam-packed with over 20 unique performances, all designed to entertain audiences of all ages. You won’t just be sitting in a theater—performances will unfold in exciting venues across the Barking Legs mainstage, garden, parking lot, and even the nearby Elks Lodge. It’s all about bringing art to the community and making it accessible to everyone!

Known local performers like Improve Chattanooga, Christian Collier, and Donnie Marsh will be taking the stage, alongside many others like Chattanooga Fire Cabaret and Spook Crow Sideshow. Each day of the festival will feature a distinct lineup, ensuring that visitors can enjoy fresh and original performances each time they visit.

Fun for the Whole Family

Here’s some great news for parents: Children aged 12 and under get in FREE! This makes it easy for families to share in the joy and whimsy that the festival offers. So why not make it a family outing? You can bet there’s going to be something that appeals to everyone, from toddlers to grandparents!

Get Involved with “Fringification”!

But wait, there’s more! The festival isn’t just for viewing—it’s also about participating. During the interactive “Fringification” events, you’ll have the chance to join local artists as they showcase their talents directly to you. This is a unique opportunity to learn, engage, or even unleash your own creativity in various workshops and activities set up throughout the festival. How cool is that?
