FRINGE WORLD 2018: Our Top Picks

Fringe World Northbridge what's on

We love Fringe - Northbridge comes alive when everyone flocks to the city for a taste of the extraordinary. It all kicks off this Friday 26 January and runs until 25 February.

Most of the tickets are cheap, the shows short, so it's the perfect opportunity to take a chance on something new. You can often get rush tix on the day of the show as well if you stop by the Fringe hub in Perth Cultural Centre. And if it's recommendations you're after, you've come to the right place. See below for Ruck Rover's Top Picks for Fringe World 2018.

Seeking Basic Needs and Other Tales of Excess

Start off just around the corner from Ruck Rover, at PICA, and wander through Northbridge on an audio tour created by Renee Newman and Ben Collins.
