SINGAPORE, Dec. 4, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- FRINGE WORLD – Perth's annual summer festival is back and it's here to bring entertainment to curious urban dwellers. Located a mere five-hour plane ride away, FRINGE WORLD is the most popular festival in Western Australia. With all kinds of entertainment from comedy and burlesque, to musicals and circus acts - allowing visitors to break out of the mundane.
Launching in Singapore for the very first time, FRINGE WORLD is Perth's best-kept secret since 2011. Amber Hasler, Festival Director of FRINGE WORLD, commented, "FRINGE WORLD has always been a cherished part of Western Australia's summer calendar and we're thrilled to share the Fringe fun with Singaporeans. We absolutely cannot wait for them to experience it because there is something for everyone and the program will not disappoint."
"Perth has undergone a major transformation in the past years and has new attractions and offerings that will excite travellers from day-to-night. FRINGE WORLD is a perfect example of the incredible array of activities and entertainment lined up in Perth and its surrounding regions next year," said Ava Ang, Country Manager Singapore & Malaysia, Tourism Western Australia. "Singapore is Western Australia's second-largest international market both in terms of visitor numbers and spend, and we are committed to showcasing what the destination has to offer to more Singaporeans," continues Ang.
The Festival program has more than 700 shows to choose from and individual show tickets are priced at an average of $26 AUD ($24 SGD) - visitors can get their funny bones tickled by 2 Englishmen and an Aussie, witness the incredible musical talents of Gingzilla: Live & Loud (as seen on America's Got Talent) and experience the physical talents, finely chiselled bodies and hilarious comic timing of Railed, a western themed circus spectacular.
