The Allentown ReFringe

ReFringe Allentown: Year Zero

Allentown, rich in history and creativity, is ready for renewal. The Allentown ReFringe embraces this moment, aware that we are the stewards of what’s next. A grassroots festival should reflect and benefit its people, so we keep ReFringe walkable within our vibrant community. When artists and audiences explore together, we create shared experiences that connect spaces and people. By localizing resources, we maximize impact. Allentown offers everything nearby venues, parks, creative spaces turning our community into a canvas, closing the gap between artist and audience weaving the festival into the neighborhood’s fabric. We’re ready for rediscovery, seeking to fill a void felt by those who wish to create and share something that belongs to us all.

What ReFringe Offers

This is a different kind of festival, which celebrates what we can achieve together. We welcome all artists, but initial constraints may place a practical limit on full bands, in adhering to our principles of transforming spaces without compromise. We hope venues will join in as needed resources, seeing what we can do with what we have. We’re not rejecting traditional acts; we’re focusing on our shared resources and the diverse creativity we aim to cultivate, offering unique environments otherwise unavailable. We ask artists to be flexible and open to new collaborations. Your adaptability enriches our ability to craft a unique experience.
