ADD YOUR VOICE TO THE FABRIC OF HOLLYWOOD FRINGE

The Hollywood Fringe is about democratizing theatre and making theatre creation more diverse, and the Access Advisory Board works to create space where that can come to fruition.

The volunteer-led Access Board makes recommendations to the organization and community at large, spearheading programming priorities, and engaging the community in dialogue around equity and inclusion.

The commitment includes:
🗓️Quarterly Meetings in Hollywood
🏆Participate in Adjudication in the Ella Award
🫶Attend 6+ Hollywood Fringe artist events per year
🎭Provide input on festival planning, programmatic changes, & major festival documents before each new festival season begins

Learn more about the program intentions + how it works at the link in our bio Applicants must have produced a show at the Festival in the past 2 years. Artist Access Advisory Board positions are available to all Hollywood Fringe participating artists, but will always be a majority BIPOC and disabled led space.

Celebrating another year of the highest ticket sales ever! 🎉

We are thrilled to officially report that the 2026 Hollywood Fringe Festival was a record breaking year! More shows than ever before AND audiences showed up for it.

🎟️Over 83,000 individual tickets were sold
💵$925,403 in ticket sales back to artists
🎙️1914 artists participated
🎭487 individual productions
🪩2190 performances
🎪at 48 venue spaces in Hollywood

64 more productions and a 25% ticket increase proves LA IS A THEATRE TOWN.

Remember, the annual report (with a full breakdown on demographics, finances + more) will come out in mid-October, but this initial set of data is certainly something to celebrate.

We are humbled to serve this amazing community of artists and arts lovers. Thank you for believing in Fringe and making it possible year after year. It matters.

We’re ready to do it all again in June 2027! Look out for an announcement with specific 2027 event dates in October.
