The arts are

The O cial Chocolate Bar of the Fringe. constantly

Made with organic New Zealand milk, single origin Peruvian cacao innovating. and freeze-dried raspberries.

Available at selected venues and Wellington Chocolate Factory.

As a society, we celebrate the innovators who produce art we find enjoyable and stimulating, and 5 Eva Street, Wellington Fringe has a special part to play in this because it's WCF.CO.NZ a launch pad.

Fringe is an incubator for innovation. A chance for artists to challenge themselves to create work which incites a response of "wow, that was different", sometimes the audience does; sometimes not.

At the time of writing this introduction I can't guess what is in store from Fringe 2018. In the last couple of years I’ve seen genius talent from Mexico and Australia, extreme avant garde from Wellington, mysterious images from Dunedin, and hilarious spoof from Christchurch. We have sent our "Best in Fringe" around the world and have opened doors for talented people from Victoria and Massey Universities, Toi Whakaari and the NZ School of Dance, Whitireia, Weltec, as well as the entirely self taught.

As a scan of the programme for Fringe 2018 indicates, even an addict of variety will overdose. Every show is a ticket in the lottery, best to buy several.

Tim Brown, Chair Creative Capital Arts Trust

This is the festival my favourite festivals because absolutely anything where our really, really talented people show just goes. It’s a bit like Wellington, quirky irreverent and how good they are. I’m proud to lead a city with on the Fringe. If you have an idea and the courage such a rich arts scene. It gives us colour and flavour! to make it happen, then you can put on a Fringe Happy living on the edge everyone! show.

Without limitations or restrictions, artists are free to make the work they believe an audience needs to see. Fringe shows often get in your face with the big issues, make you question the world around you and open your mind to new possibilities. They can be funny and confronting, poignant and brash, and Justin Lester many use some of Wellington’s hidden spaces Mayor of Wellington PROUDLY HELPING to great advantage.
