14 Years Strong: Hollywood Fringe Festival Unveils New Hub
and Initiatives to Empower Artists and Enrich Communities in
2024
HOLLYWOOD, Calif., May 1, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- The Hollywood Fringe Festival is thrilled to
announce tickets for the 14th annual event are now on sale.
Committed to fostering creativity and the live theater scene in
Los Angeles, the Hollywood Fringe
Festival presents an unparalleled opportunity to view a wide range
of live performances.
In addition to a host of world premiere shows, this year's
festival returns with the festival hub, Fringe Central, in a
brand-new location at Ovation Hollywood. With this new home base
officially opening on May 10th, the
ability to support artists grows exponentially. Offerings at Fringe
Central include the in-person Box Office & Merch Shop, special
Fringe Cabaret events, Discover Fringe Arts Industry events, and
mixers, as well as a complimentary busking program for participants
to bring the live performance quite literally to the street.
The Hollywood Fringe Festival is not just a chance to see shows,
it's a chance to interact with and support a lively community of
artists. Eager to encourage the creation of work, the HFF has
rewarded 24 recipients the 2024 Artist Fund, an initiative created
to support micro-commissioned works by local low-income artists for
the 2024 festival, and announced 10 scholarship recipients for the
2024 festival through the Fringe Scholarship Program, which seeks
to diversify the group of artists producing work at the festival.
HFF has an unwavering commitment to promoting theater and
facilitating it, making the organization more than just an event,
but a year-round supporter of the performing arts. The organization
facilitates free trainings and educational workshops throughout the
year for artists to learn how to be their own advocates and
producers.
HFF's impressive dedication to accessible live
entertainment expands beyond supporting the creators to removing
barriers to entry for attendees as well. Tickets to Hollywood
Fringe Festival productions range from free to $15 per ticket on average, ensuring anyone can
experience the cultural festival.
Running from June 13th to June
30th, the HFF will feature hundreds of shows and thousands
of in-person performances at venues across Hollywood, turning the city into a veritable
hub of theater. Featuring a majority of new works, original works,
and independent artists, this is an opportunity to support and
witness talent in the creative process.
The Hollywood Fringe Festival looks forward to welcoming the
community back for Los Angeles'
largest celebration of the performing arts.

About The Hollywood Fringe Festival
The
Hollywood Fringe Festival is an annual, open-access,
community-derived event celebrating freedom of expression and
collaboration in the performing arts community.
Participation in the Hollywood Fringe is completely open and
uncensored. This free-for-all approach underlines the festival's
mission to be a platform for artists without the barrier of a
curating body. By opening the gates to anyone with a vision, the
festival can exhibit the most diverse and cutting-edge
points-of-view the world has to offer. Additionally, by creating an
environment where artists must self-produce their work, the Fringe
motivates its participants to cultivate a spirit of
entrepreneurialism in the arts.
