Singapore Fringe Festival
The Singapore Fringe Festival, one of the country's longest-running fringe festivals, returns from Jan 14 to 25, 2026, thanks to crowdfunding efforts.
Organised by local theatre company The Necessary Stage (TNS), it raised $50,519 from 156 donors through a campaign from Oct 28, 2024, to March 31, 2025. Telco M1, which had been supporting the festival since its inception in 2005, ended its support in 2025.
TNS' general manager Melissa Lim says it is hoping to keep the festival at the same size as previous editions. The festival costs about $230,000 to stage, and 2025's edition featured seven productions.
Ms Lim adds: "We are hoping to keep to around six productions if all goes well.
