At the Hollywood Fringe Festival, artists are at the center of the community. We believe artists have the power to change the world with their stories and voices, which is why we want the work of our participants to go beyond our festival and community, and reach/make an impact on wider audiences and communities. The Discover Fringe program seeks to connect participating artists with members of the international theatre, film and television industries to take their shows beyond the Hollywood Fringe Festival stages. 

Who should become a Discover Fringe Arts Industry Member?

If you’re a professional in the arts and culture or entertainment industry and you are interested in meeting Hollywood Fringe participants and community members, this program is for you! We are seeking arts and entertainment industry professionals who are interested in engaging with Hollywood Fringe participants and/or have the capacity to provide collaborative, professional, or programming opportunities to Hollywood Fringe artists. There are two categories of Discover Fringe Arts Industry Members at the 2025 Festival - Industry and Industry+.

---> Industry is for arts industry professionals who are interested in connecting with artists at the festival, but may not have direct opportunities to offer at this time. Includes VIP access and invitations to Hollywood Fringe events, networking opportunities with HFF artists and community members, a dedicated “concierge” service to navigate the festival, inclusion in the "Discover Fringe Arts Industry" contact list sent to artists, and access to artists' contact information who have opted in to the program with tour-ready work.

---> Industry+ is for arts industry professionals who are interested in presenting/judging a Discover Fringe Award at the festival and/or have direct opportunities/booking opportunities to provide to HFF artists. Includes everything that the Industry category receives (listed above), as well as the benefit of being registered on the Hollywood Fringe website as "industry" to directly request comp tickets through the site for HFF25 shows.

NEW THIS YEAR! All Industry and Industry+ members will be invited to 2025 Discover Fringe Industry Week, an invitation-only, exclusive festival experience taking place during the last week of HFF25, including curated events and panels, networking sessions, show pitches and more. Stay tuned for more information on Industry Week coming soon!

Are you an HFF25 artist interested in getting involved with this program?

We want all of our participants to meet arts industry professionals and take their shows beyond the Hollywood Fringe Festival stages. You’ll have the opportunity to network with Discover Fringe Arts Industry Members, apply for Discover Fringe Awards, attend events and panels with arts industry members, and build lasting connections that go beyond the festival. If you are a Hollywood Fringe participant/artist interested in networking opportunities with arts industry members, nothing is needed from you at this time, but stay tuned for more information on how to get involved.

Terms of Use: Hollywood Fringe reserves the right to revoke Discover Fringe credentials at any time, without warning. Please look at the Hollywood Fringe Code of Conduct & Ethos, which you are signing on to uphold when participating in this program. When requesting comp tickets, please try to be communicative with artists regarding your potential offerings. Comp tickets are granted at the discretion of each show’s respective production team. Many productions may ask you to limit guests, particularly if finances and/or house sizes are limited. If you receive a comp ticket, and are unable to attend, please email the production within 24 hours of the performance so they may sell the ticket at the door.
