Every August, the Edmonton International Fringe Festival transforms the popular historic neighbourhood of Old Strathcona into an 11-day street party. Multiple blocks become pedestrian-only. Food trucks whip up greasy food. A kids’ stage hosts family-friendly theatre. Beer tents flourish. World-class street performers attract crowds of passersby.
