Step by Step
The Adelaide Fringe Event Registration System (FERS) may seem a bit daunting - but that's just because it has a big name! It's been developed by the Fringe, for you the artist, and each Fringe is being improved with your feedback.
By using FERS you can update and change your registration details as many times as you need until the close of registrations! Because you can log in and access your registration information on any screen, Fringe staff are also able to access your registration information, which is quite handy when it comes to giving you the best assistance possible.
Below is a step-by-step run through of how to register with FERS. We have also provided you with an overview of commonly used terms from FERS. This overview will be available in the Artist Resources Section in FERS so you can access it at any time during your registration.

To begin, click the "register your event here" link on the homepage (available after August 1st.. Here you will create a login ID and password that you will need to use each time you access your registration details in FERS. Please make sure you remember your pasword.
