Maui Fringe Festival
The Maui Fringe Festival is an annual alternative theatre festival held in Wailuku, on the island of Maui. This Hawaii festival is part of the Hawai'i Fringe Festival circuit, in conjunction with the annual O'ahu Fringe Festival. The event is organized and sponsored by Maui Onstage, a not-for-profit organization, and has run annually since 2011. The festival is staged in July at the historic Iao Theater, and is traditionally scheduled the weekend following the O'ahu Fringe Festival in late January.
