Billet at Touring Performer

 

Every year the Toronto Fringe welcomes a variety of National and International artists. As you can imagine traveling from festival to festival can be a costly endeavor. In order to encourage artists to continue touring their work, the Fringe works hard to offer them a free place to stay while performing at our Fringe. A spare bed, couch or comfy piece of floor is greatly appreciated by touring artists and can go a long way to help make the Fringe circuit a cost-effective means of showcasing new work across the country.

 

We here at the Fringe office also take careful consideration in matching hosts and guests appropriately. People who offer artists a place to stay are encouraged to fill in a form where they can detail their guest preferences. Artists interesting in being billeted are also required to fill in a detailed questionnaire so that the Fringe can best match everyone up. Once paired up, the Fringe will ensure that you are contacted so that you can give your final approval on the artist we wish to assign to you. Many a great friendship have blossomed from the Fringe billeting program and it is a great way to show your support for the festival.

 

In addition to our heartfelt thanks, for your generosity, the Toronto Fringe will offer a VIP 6 pass (good for six free fringe admission which you can book in advance) to each household that billets a Fringe performer.
