The Amsterdam Fringe Festival is an unselected, untamed and unjudged festival: an ode to theatrical madness, the independent spirit and a plea for artistic freedom. With 10 days of 80 different performances at more than 40 different venues. For the Fringe, Amsterdam is a city that only blossoms in artificial light. A city that awakens at dusk, a city that buzzes and brews, attracting musicians, street performers, theater artists, magicians, snake charmers, nerd-chic brainiacs, set-builders and post-avant-gardists like a giant magnet.
