The Sydney Fringe Festival has revealed its full 2017 program, opening ticket sales for more than 300 productions presented from 1 – 30 September at 42 partner venues across inner Sydney. Spanning theatre, physical theatre and circus, music, comedy, visual art, film, cabaret, musical theatre, dance and the spoken-word, Fringe will for the first time in 2017 be based out of a new expansive Festival Hub at Sydney Park in Alexandria.

The HPG Festival Hub will see a 7000m2 warehouse transformed into multiple performance and exhibition spaces that will be home to immersive light, art and theatre experiences, music and theatre performances, a 200-seat vegan feast, a masquerade ball and numerous installations.

Other highlights include the FRINGE IGNITE Launch Party curated by one of Australia’s most dynamic vocalists NGAIIRE with a series of live music gigs and performances from 3pm until 8pm at Kensington St Chippendale, the Heaps Gay Masqueerade, world premiere theatre experiences and exhibitions, Global Rhythms music festival in Bicentennial Park, and a performance by Lah-Lah’s Big Live Band and the Sydney Youth Orchestra in the Sydney Town Hall to close the festival.
