- Reminder of deadlines
- Information on artist opportunities, including how to express interest to be involved
Artist Packs & Passes
Your first stop for the Fringe should be the Artist Services Bureau (open 2 weeks before the Fringe kicks off ). There you will receive an Artist Pack full of useful information and handy items such as maps, public transport timetables and much more. You will also receive your all important Artist Pass, that not only identifies you as a Fringe Artist, but also gives you access to discounts off a whole range of events, merchandise and services while you're in Adelaide.
