Tickets
All shows are e-ticketed - here's how it works:
-
Once you book your tickets you will receive a confirmation email containing a QR code that the venue staff will scan when you arrive to see your show.
-
You can show the code on your device or print it off at home.
-
If you do not have a smartphone or require a physical ticket, our box office will be happy to print one for you.
-
There is NO LATE SEATING for any show.
Some tips for e-tickets:
-
It might be a good idea to screenshot your QR code if you're concerned about wifi access.
How to fringe

GET YOUR TICKETS
Buttons are a must-have to see a ticketed show. They support the Fringe and help make the festival happen. Plus, they make you look really cool.
To see a show, you need a show ticket. 100% of ticket sales go directly to the artists. Head to any festival box office or get tickets on our online box office.
Choose a show by asking around, talking to an artist, or browsing the ticket website.

Planning your schedule
Traveling between venues
Harrisburg is a very walkable city, and many of the venues are downtown and within walking distance of eachother. There are some exceptions with some venues being further uptown, so it's worth leaving plenty of time to get from show to show.
This also applies for shows at the same venue – some venues have multiple performance spaces, and it can take time to exit one show and check in to the next show (especially if you want to grab some food, visit the bar or use the facilities in-between).
Some venues will not admit latecomers once a show has started, so make sure you leave plenty of time for travelling between shows.
