Adelaide Fringe 2027 Venue EOI

ARTIST CALLOUT FOR ADELAIDE FRINGE 2027 AT NEXUS ARTS VENUE IS NOW OPEN.

Welcome to the Nexus Arts Venue Fringe 2027 Artist and Presenters Expression Of Interest.

For our 2027 Fringe Season, Nexus Arts is seeking to program work by South Australian artists from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds with a particular focus on the performance of original music.  

Nexus Arts especially encourages applications from First Nations artists. 

We also welcome applications from artists with a disability, and groups working in the disability sector.  

We are of course open to EOI applications from artists of any background. Interstate and International Artists are invited to apply; however, priority will be given to local artists. 

Please read more about Nexus Arts and our artistic mission here.
