Adelaide is a quiet city but at this time of year comes to life. Streets are buzzing with people of all ages...Adelaide's Fringe came to town. With 57 years long tradition Fringe became Southern Hemisphere’s largest, and Australia's biggest open access arts festival. If you haven't visited Adelaide this time of year is the best time to feel it's spirit.
During four weeks artist from all over the world will perform in venues in parks, warehouses and empty buildings but also in theatres, hotels, art galleries, cafes and town halls.
2018, Fringe is happening from 16 February – 18 March. It started tonight on North Terrace with street party and Adelaide immediately came to life. This was the first of more than 1200 shows and events.
It was real pleasure walking the streets during the opening night. Thousands of people gathered to enjoy the event. Costumes, performances, colors are surrounding you and you get the feeling that you entered magical timeless world.
With camera in my hand, I followed river of people and even pushing and squeezing through the crowd was plesurable.
There was something for everyone from kids to those of an older age.
No matter how long I speak about this festival nothing can describe it better than photos.
The evening finished with laser light show. Every building was a canvas for hundreds of changing patterns and colors. One of the best on this parade of light was a colorful presentation of aborigines culture.
All photos are taken by me. Gear used Sony a6000, lens 50 mm 1.8
