The Hollywood Fringe Festival is an annual fringe theatre festival in Hollywood, California.[1][2] Most indoor venues for the festival are in and around Hollywood Theatre Row, a Шаблон:Convert stretch of Santa Monica Boulevard in Los Angeles.[3]

Founder Ben Hill started trying to organize a local fringe festival not long after he moved to Los Angeles from Iowa City in 2007.[3][4] He and other organizers launched the first Hollywood Fringe Festival in the summer of 2010.[1][5] That year, there were 130 shows in the festival.[6]

The shows are not curated (selected based on merit).[4] To perform, one must pay a registration fee[3] and be ready with a concept and the means to produce it.[6] The festival organizers market the event and provide some support, but the theatre companies must find their own venues and market their own shows.[6]

In the 2012 festival, theatre companies produced more than 230 shows and gave more than 1,000 performances.[1] Companies participating in the 2014 festival produced more than 300 shows.[6]

In 2018, the Hollywood Fringe Festival was one of the filming locations for the trivia game show Buzz'd Out!.[7]

Approximately 56,000 tickets sold were sold for the 2016 festival, which drew an estimated $447,000 in revenue. All revenue from ticket sales is paid to the artists and venues.[8]

The COVID-19 pandemic caused 2020's cancellation & deferral to 2021.[9]
