Our 2023 Festival Venue!
We are happy to announce that the 2023 Fringe North Festival will take place at the Sault Ste. Marie Museum!
The museum can be located at 690 Queen St East in downtown Sault Ste. Marie.
This beautiful building, which will serve as the hub for this season's festival, was opened in 1983 as a museum but built as a post office in 1902! 2023 marks it's 40th anniversary. It houses many historical artifacts of Sault Ste. Marie and the Algoma Region. We are grateful to be producing performing arts from Sault Ste. Marie, Algoma, Northern Ontario, and further beyond within this historical space.
