All tickets and festival passes are available to purchase at the Capitol Centre's box office. Show tickets are $14 per show and festival passes can be purchased for $120. All ticket revenue is returned directly to the artists! On the Edge Fringe only keeps fees to pay for our box office system and staff.
Duality Multi-Arts Programming will also be making a return.
Duality is a yearly multi-arts incubator/program that engages artists and audiences during and outside of the ON THE EDGE Fringe Festival. It features a series of disruptive interventions and explorations within the Capitol Centre and North Bay’s downtown area, often taking shape as theatrical engagements, pop-up performances, readings and dance events, workshops, community-engaged activities, media and multi-arts installations, and other immersive arts experiences that are FREE.
Since 2014, the ON THE EDGE Fringe Festival has been a forum for professional and emerging alternative theatre and performance in North Bay, Ontario. Our objective is to provide a diverse cultural and entertainment experience for our community and to promote and support artists from our region and afar. Every year the festival presents shows ranging from sketch and stand-up comedy, contemporary dance pieces, and slam poetry to storytelling, folk/indie music, multi-disciplinary performance art and more traditional theatre works.
