Picture This: Launch Party for the 2025 Scranton Fringe Festival

Scranton’s vibrant arts community gathered at Marywood University this week to celebrate the official launch of the 2025 Scranton Fringe Festival. The evening brought together performers, organizers, and supporters for a lively kickoff filled with energy, creativity, and anticipation for the festivities ahead.

Founded in 2015, the festival is a multi-venue performing arts festival that transforms the city into a hub for creativity. Each year, it showcases an eclectic mix of theatre, music, comedy, dance, puppetry, spoken word, and experimental art. The festival’s mission is to amplify artistic voices, support independent creators, and make the arts accessible to all by presenting work across diverse venues throughout the city.

This year’s festival will deliver an expanded lineup of local and national talent, immersive performances, and community-driven programming that highlights Scranton’s role as a growing hub for creativity and culture.

Scranton Fringe 2025 will be more than just a series of performances—it will be a celebration of imagination, resilience, and the unifying power of the arts. The Scranton Fringe Festival is taking place from September 25 – October 5. Grab your tickets now!
