Fisher Continues Sponsorship of Rochester Fringe Festival

St. John Fisher University will once again serve as a higher education sponsor for the Rochester Fringe Festival, which brings more than 500 performances to dozens of venues in downtown Rochester each September.

Beginning on Tuesday, Sept. 10 and running through Saturday, Sept. 21, the Rochester Fringe Festival promises to be a thrilling place to watch the arts in action – with everything from musical performances and spoken word to comedy, art, and more.

The festival lineup of 250 productions with more than 650 performances over 12 days includes returning favorites, Rochester Fringe debuts, and U.S. and world premieres. The festival expects to see tens of thousands of people attend its events; with many taking place at Parcel 5 (near One East Avenue) and at the Spiegelgarden at One Fringe Place, at the corner of Main and Gibbs Streets across from the Eastman Theatre.

Tickets are available online or via phone at (585) 957-9837 (additional fees may apply). They can also be purchased in person during the festival; at the door of the venue or at the One Fringe Place Box Office, corner of Main and Gibbs Streets.
