Fringe World Festival 2026 Program is on sale for general public now! ✨

Last week we kicked off the season with our FRINGE WORLD 2026 Program Launch, celebrating the shows, artists and initiatives coming your way.

One of our favourite highlights was ARTRAGE CEO & Creative Director Jo Thomas in a stunning pink gown, courtesy of Luxe Designer Fashion Hire. Their support added a vibrant touch to the evening, and what makes them even more special is their commitment in supporting the community: 100% of their profits go towards supporting WA women in need through Vinnies WA, which makes their contribution even more meaningful.

A huge thank you to Luxe Designer Fashion Hire, and to everyone who helped bring the event to life 🩷

Here’s a look at some standout moments from the night.
