Experience the Magic of the Hollywood Fringe Festival

The Hollywood Fringe Festival (HFF) is set to celebrate its 15th anniversary from June 12 to June 29, 2025, marking over a decade of bold independent theater in Los Angeles. This vibrant festival invites audiences to explore an extensive range of performances across various genres, featuring original works and talented independent artists. With tickets officially on sale, attendees can now secure their seats for a unique live entertainment experience that highlights creativity and innovation.

A Celebration of Diversity and Accessibility

HFF's commitment to accessibility ensures that live theater is available to everyone, regardless of background or experience. As a community-driven event, the festival fosters a spirit of collaboration and freedom of expression within the performing arts. Artists are empowered to act as their own producers, with ticket prices typically averaging around $15, allowing them to set their own rates while still keeping performances affordable for audiences.

From dramatic plays to comedic sketches and everything in between, the festival features hundreds of performances that cater to a wide array of tastes and interests. Interested patrons can browse through shows by category, date, venue, and more by visiting the festival's website or by using the Hollywood Fringe Festival mobile app.

This community hub provides attendees with a physical Box Office, merchandise shop, and hosts special events, including the Fringe Cabaret and networking mixers designed to connect artists with one another.

Supporting the Arts Community

The festival fosters a sense of community not only through performances but also through its scholarship program aimed at increasing diversity within the festival and supporting underrepresented artists. Since 2016, the scholarship has aided 101 production teams, funding 15 artists in its latest round, a significant increase compared to the previous year.

As Lois Neville, Co-Executive Director of the Hollywood Fringe Festival, expressed, "After last year's record-breaking ticket sales, we are eager to launch our 15th anniversary season. The secret is out! Local audiences are embracing the festival and the artists who participate. I can't wait to see the stories that will be shared this year!" This sentiment exemplifies the festival’s essence – a celebration of artistic expression that resonates with the Los Angeles community.
