Hi Victoria Fringe Artists - over the course of the year leading up to the fringe, we'll be posting and updating info, artist packages, forms and tutorials on all kinds of topics here on this blog.
Whenever there's something time-sensitive, like a deadline for you to return forms, we'll send you an email remininding you to visit this page - but we'll be adding stuff all the time so check back periodically to see what's new.

For those of you unfamiliar with Canadian geography, this is what you need to know before planning your trip:
If you are on tour but aren’t flying, give yourself two days travel time from Edmonton to Victoria by land and sea.
Directions: turn left and go over the Canadian Rockies for about 550 miles until you reach the Pacific Ocean, (good to know if you’re planning to tour in your 1961 Volkswagen van), then take a 1.5 hour scenic trip by car ferry from Vancouver to Vancouver Island (the last ferry leaves at 9 pm or 10 pm, depending on the day of week and time of year). Victoria is on the southernmost tip of Vancouver Island. Schedules and fare info: www.bcferries.bc.ca . Edmonton to Victoria is about 90 minutes by air, and there’s some good deals out there, so if you are traveling light you might want to check them out – try www.westjet.com.
Our Festival opens on Thursday Aug 27, with our annual block party and Fringe Preview on the 26th – try to be here for that because it’s a good place to promote your show and get the buzz going early.

The Fringe Website will be at VICTORIAFRINGE.COM (Intrepidtheatre.com will forward there, so no worries if you used that.
We have full online ticket sales and print-at-home ability that people can access through our website.
By phone, tickets will be available just a few days before the festival starts. The hotline number is 250-590-6291 - this is the number for TICKET ROCKET, which is the community box office we run at intrepid Theatre. Tickets will also be available online at ticketrocket.org - but it's best to direct your audience to victoriafringe.com where they can read all about your show, then click the link to ticketrocket to buy tickets.
