San Diego International Fringe Festival is a non-profit project of CONTACT ARTS designed to help provide a platform for artists while also helping the community as a whole - boosting arts and culture within the gorgeous City of San Diego (with venues also showcasing performances in Tijuana, MEXICO).

During the festival, artists from across the United States and around the world participate alongside homegrown talent, in art forms spanning from theatre, buskers/street performers, cabaret, comedy, circus, dance, film, poetry, spoken word, puppetry, music, visual art, design & open to any other type of arts-y-ness not listed.

Key to the operation of San Diego International Fringe Festival is its’ role to support, encourage, and facilitate producers, artists, presenters, venues, and businesses. The festival works to ensure that artists and all participants involved have the best possible experience.

For independent artists, San Diego International Fringe Festival is an inspirational environment to showcase their work.
