Drum roll please – it’s time to announce our 2024 Nelson Fringe Awards
We had a team of judges who (between them) managed to see every single show in the festival. Whoa – that’s a feat in itself, and we thank each and every one of them from the bottom of our festy hearts. We then collated their feedback, and voilà – a list of Awards!
Congratulations everyone! It’s a massive effort to get on stage for a fringe show, whether it’s a well-honed show-on-the-road, or a brand-new, bunny-in-the-limelight kinda experience. Every performer (and their support crew) deserve almighty praise for their triumphs.
HUGE congrats to our winners, and for the full list of nominees, click here.
