Ticket Fee Policy
Purchases are subject to a $2 order fee per ticket for credit card processing and $2 facility fee for events taking place at FringeArts. This helps us maintain the high quality of our theater space and maximize our box office efficiency. We thank you in advance for generously supporting progressive, world-class art in Philadelphia!
Ticket fees are waived for FringeACCESS members as part of the ACCESS Philly Program. Tickets purchased in cash do not incur an order fee, but are subject to the $2 facility fee.
How to Use Your E-Tickets
There is no need to print your ticket attached to your confirmation email. You can check in at the FringeArts Box Office by providing the name tickets are purchased under. Independently Produced Shows in the Fringe Festival also receive a door list of attendees before each show to check patrons in by name.
Seating Policy
Seating for all shows is on a first-come, first-served basis. Latecomers are seated at the discretion of the house manager. Some shows do not allow late seating, so arrive early!
Performance Disruption Policy
Any patrons intentionally disturbing other audience members and disrupting the performance will be asked kindly by our volunteers and House Manager to please refrain. If the disturbance continues, that patron will be escorted out of the performance. FringeArts does not offer refunds on ticket purchases.
Weather Policy
Inclement weather is not a cause for ticket refunds unless a performance is actually cancelled. In the event that FringeArts cancels a performance for any reason, every effort will be made to notify ticket holders as soon as possible. As always, members may exchange tickets up to 24 hours before performance time by emailing PatronServices@FringeArts.com or calling 215.413.1318.

Many Producers Circle level donors choose to support FringeArts through a charitable foundation or a donor advised fund. According to IRS regulations, donors may not receive any tangible benefits or services in exchange for the grant from their foundation or donor advised fund. In these situations, FringeArts can offer basic benefits that carry no tangible value. These available benefits include:
