Fringe Grounds Cafe

Psst... Did you hear? Fringe Grounds Cafe is hosting a Volunteer Fair to kick off National Volunteer Week and help interested folks learn more about volunteering for the Edmonton Fringe Festival!

Join us Sunday, April 19 from 12PM – 4PM to celebrate community, ask questions, and get yourself a little treat (we made extra-special blueberry lemonade for ‘ya!)

PS. Starting April 19, Volunteers who have signed up for the 2026 Fringe get a free funfetti cookie and a non-alcoholic drink of your choice all week long!

👠 Attention all lovers of fashion (and Fringe): Fabulous shoes are in our neighbourhood! 👠

Our Fringe x John Fluevog Shoes Shopping Party is popping up just down the block at Fluevog Shoes! And trust us, you’ll want to wander over.

🗓 Tomorrow (March 28)
🕑 2 – 6PM
📍 Fluevog Shoes on Whyte Ave (10344 82 Avenue NW)

50% of all regular-priced purchases support Fringe Theatre. So you can feel extra good about that new pair of shoes (or those very cute socks 🧦).

Plus, enter to win incredible prizes from Bamboo Ballroom, Laurel's On Whyte, and Fringe Theatre! See you there!

We’re open till 3PM! Swing by the Cafe, grab a drink, then make an afternoon of it on Whyte.

We’ll see you there!

Have you seen the gorgeous new murals outside our Cafe yet? We’re starstruck by local artist Emily Chu’s talent! 🎨

As part of Fringe Theatre’s commitment to radically accessible theatre, the upcoming 2025 Holdover Series will include CART (Communication Access Realtime Translation) captioning for select Holdover Series productions in the Westbury Theatre. CART captioning services will be provided by Jeffrey Weigl with WizCap Realtime Reporting, Inc. CART captioning is generously supported by Edmonton Community Foundation.

CART captioning provides real-time subtitles of dialogue and sound cues during live theatre performances, ensuring Deaf and hard-of-hearing Audiences, as well as those who benefit from text-based access, can fully engage with the performances.
