We’re headed into the first weekend of the Toronto Fringe Festival. Being the savvy Fringe Festival-goers I know you all are, I’m sure you’re headed to the festival the first weekend to catch as much new stuff as you can and totally not procrastinating and waiting in the lines for the busier second weekend? Right?
Of course being an early bird may be even easier if you won free tickets from our Fringe for Free contest!
For every day of the festival, we’ll be giving out tickets to 5 shows. Exciting, right? What’s even more exciting is how easy it is to enter – you can enter each of the five contests by sending us an email (more details below).
Remember, you need to enter each contest individually. If we pick your name, you’ve got two tickets heading your way.
Check out the list of the 5 shows playing on Saturday, July 5th after the jump.
