21 January – 15 February

Food & Drinks at FRINGE WORLD

FRINGE WORLD is more than just shows. It’s a full night out, and food and drinks are part of the experience.

Across the festival, every venue offers its own food and beverage options, from bars and pop-ups to nearby restaurants and dessert stops. Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite between shows, meeting friends for a drink, or turning your session into a whole evening, there’s something close by wherever you are.

In addition to independent venues across the city, ARTRAGE also manages three major festival sites with dedicated food and bar offerings. These hubs are designed for pre-show dining, post-show drinks, and everything in between.
