So we have a FRINGE announcement…:
Hi all! It’s Ali, the owner and event manager for
Each year I sprinkle a little magic and somehow secure an empty retail building in the heart of Rundle street for the month of
This year however that’s not the case 🥹
For a number of reasons will be taking a little break from our month in Rundle street
and plan to come back bigger in 2027! 🙏
I started and our annual Fringe Pop Up back in 2018 in the Betty’s Burgers building in Rundle street.
and many other local artisans joined us and helped make that a huge success.
Then for 2019 and 2020 we moved over to the old T2 building. Right in the action.
Wow. 🤩 Just wow. A HUGE 2 years was had!
If you know you know! 🥂
Then lockdown began in the last night of Fringe 2020
and as it turned out we had 2 years ‘break’ while we focussed on building our other events,
Mother’s Day, Easter, Christmas Markets and our
Retail collaborative
Then our recent space on the corner of Rundle and Synagogue Place became available for Fringe 2023,2024 and 2025!
And boy did we make it our home!
You loved the space and the location as much as all of our new makers!
But we knew last year was our last Pop Up in that building.
(Amazingly lucky to get any space, let alone one for 3 years!)
So…. It’s only fair to bring you along and let you know this year I, Ali, am focussing on family and going to enjoy a well earned holiday or two!
Then we will come back refreshed for something exciting later this year in Spring! 🐈⬛
So to our Fringe Pop Up makers we will miss you! 🥰
To our visitors who come from far and wide, to drink cocktails at our bar and shop with our Adelaide businesses, we will miss you! 🙏
And to all my beautiful friends and supporters who pop in every week to have a drink at the bar and a chat ill, miss you more than you know! 🥰
But we will be back 🤩
For now, I’m looking forward to actually enjoying some nights in the Fringe myself this year!
So see you all soon (but not soon enough)
Ali and the Artisans of Adelaide events crew
