About the Open Call

In the past 21 years, the IndyFringe Festival, presented by Everwise Credit Union, has served over 7.5K artists, and returned over $2.6M to our participants. Whether your craft is burlesque, circus, drama, stand-up comedy, magic, music, or something else entirely, as Indiana’s largest performing arts festival we believe in fostering great connections with artists and audience members alike. No matter your creative discipline, our entirely walkable festival will fuel your mind and inspire lasting memories in the fabulous City of Indianapolis.
