Adelaide Fringe is the world's second-largest fringe, and it is coming to a close on the 22nd of March. One of the highlights of this fringe is the Honey Pot, which is like a job fair for producing entities and shows.

The excitement of the world's second largest fringe festival is palpable. Pop-up venues arrive all over the city, bars turn into theatres, and theatres turn into gathering grounds. Here are our reviews for 2026, Part 1.

Fringe theatre has always been built on movement. Artists travel from city to city, crossing borders with stories shaped by where they come from and where they are going next. International touring fringe artists are not an added bonus to the ecosystem. They are fundamental to it.

Children’s theater is often treated as a stepping stone to “real” theater, but Marilyn Greer of Meg in the Magic Toy Shop sees it as a vibrant art form in its own right. Her award-winning Fringe show blends vintage charm, interactive storytelling, and a deep understanding of child development to create something that is both delightful and purposeful.

We are an artist-centered outlet, we're happy to do some narrowing down and give some well-deserved shout-outs to shows at the Adelaide Fringe 2026. We celebrate what has been created. Go see something that interests you, who cares if it has no reviews or top picks? Or, take a chance on something you'd never see; it will probably surprise you.
