About Frigid Fringe 2026
This coming year, New York City Fringe is running from Wednesday April 1st through Sunday April 19th in five venues: Frigid’s home venue UNDER St Marks and Wild Project in the East Village; the Chain Mainstage and Studio in Midtown and The Rat NYC in Dumbo.
New York City Fringe (formally the FRIGID Fringe Festival) is our flagship festival and something we all look forward to! It is an open, lottery-based theater festival that gives artists an opportunity to let their ingenuity thrive in an environment that values freedom of expression and artistic determination. In true support of the Indie Theater Community, 100% of box office proceeds go directly to the artists whose work is being presented.
Fringe applications are taken through our website and are open from Labor Day through Halloween. The festival runs in the beginning of April.
New York City Fringe is a proud member of the Canadian Association of Fringe Festivals.
