DROP IN TO THE MELBOURNE FRINGE TICKET CENTRE
Located on the ground floor at 225 Bourke Street from 8 September, open 7 days a week midday to 6.00pm for cash or credit card sales, information on shows and friendly advice all right in the heart of the CBD.
AT THE DOOR
Just turn up at the venue and purchase tickets on the spot. Make sure you take some cash as some Melbourne Fringe venues will not have credit card facilities.
And don't assume there will always be tickets available at the door! Shows do sell out.
COLD HARD TICKETS
Don't forget to bring your print-at-home ticket with you and avoid queues at the Fringe Hub box offices. If you can't print your own then arrive early, and don't forget to bring the credit card you purchased your tickets with.
VIP PASS
The Melbourne Fringe VIP pass is your golden ticket to enjoying all things Fringe. Valued at nearly $1000, this exclusive VIP pass grants the holder and a friend FREE access to as many shows as they can possibly bear throughout the festival, pending availability. That’s almost 300 shows at over 100 venues in Melbourne, and 456 hours in which to immerse yourself in the best our independent arts community has to offer!
The catch? These babies aren't for sale. We only give them away to particularly VI people, or through our many competitions. Make sure you've signed up to our e-news The Fix, and keep an eye on our Competitions page, Facebook and Twitter to stay in the VIP know.
