Non-Street Fest day spots - June 11, 12, 13 - will be given free to people who purchase the street fest spots, until we run out.

Rain Days:
At noon each day the Fringe outdoor site coordinator (team Indyish star and switch hitter Tristan!) will decide whether we’ll set up indoors or outdoors. If there’s rain, we’ll be setting up at Lambi and Fringe volunteers will be helping set up and transport the tables and chairs.

Take down may be earlier on rain days as Lambi, the official Fringe Club, will fill up with folk and eventually get too crowded.

The markets are happening outdoors at the Parc Des Ameriques - the main venue for the Montreal Fringe Festival.

The rain venue for the markets is just up the street at Club Lambi. Club Lambi is the official “Fringe Club” this year.

The first people to arrive will be given the most visible spots so the markets can get rolling on time.

The Montreal Fringe is an international performance festival that includes 100 theatre companies, thousands of artists of different kinds and hundreds of thousands of audience members. This year it coincides with 2 street fests and promises to be the mostest fun ever. Seriously.

    answers to questions:

    I got some good questions sent to me today about the Indyish @ Fringe markets, so i thought i’d share the answers:

    - yes, we provide tables and chairs (though we recommend bringing a cushion!)

    - in the market area there are no tents or roofs. You can bring an umbrella if you like.

    However, we do have a rain venue, 2 blocks up the street indoors at Club Lambi. Everyday at noon we’ll decide if we’ll be indoors at Lambi or outdoors at the Parc.

    One market spot is half a table, 3×3 feet.

    If you want to set up for all the days available to you we can give you a wholesale price, so just shoot an email to fringe @indyish.com and let me know. hokay? cheers!
