Unlike Anything Else.
In 2019, the Fringe brought 100,000 people together across 12 days of exhilarating performances. In 2020, the Virtual Fringe reached viewers across the nation and beyond. And, in 2021, we were back with 90% of our shows in-person.
Since 2012, over 500,000 people have experienced nearly 4,000 Fringe events and shows. Fringe audiences aren’t just big - they’re like no other, because the Fringe itself is impossible to pin down. With shows and events spanning from nationally-recognized comedians to beloved local musicians and far beyond, it’s no wonder that people who attend the Fringe come from a huge array of backgrounds and demographics.
As a sponsor, your company takes center stage through a variety of customized opportunities for memorable, personal experiences with Fringe attendees. Supporting the Fringe means connecting with loyal Fringe fans, including community-minded and culturally engaged young people who we reach through relationships with regional higher education institutions. Your partnership as a corporate sponsor helps to foster Rochester’s thriving arts community, makes a real difference for the hundreds of artists who participate in the Fringe, and drives our city’s renaissance forward.
