Toronto Fringe is unique because it is a non-juried theatre festival, selecting shows through a lottery. Why does Fringe do this? Because we believe every voice has an equal right to be heard and celebrated. When you partner with Fringe, you're joining an adventurous, creative, and joyful community.

Here at Toronto Fringe, everything we do is in service to independent artists. We subsidize the cost of producing a show, and send all the box office revenue back to the artists. In 2023 artists at Toronto Fringe made $500,000!

Fringe is a crucial part of the theatre ecology. With your support, we can help artists find their voices, try something new, and join a community.

Support the artists by buying a ticket. Support the Fringe with a one-time donation. Support the future with a monthly donation.

Adjust your donation amount by clicking on and typing in the "Other" field.

You may also donate on our Canada Helps page, but we prefer to take donations via our own system above. Thank you.
