2025 Pick of the Fringe

Part of the fun of the Victoria Fringe is the Pick of the Fringe Awards, where audience vote for their favourite shows across multiple categories.

Tonight, we closed the 2025 Victoria Fringe, and handed out hand-decorated trophies at the Pick of the Fringe Awards, which are voted on by YOU, the audience.

Thanks to all of the artists, patrons, volunteers, staff, supporters and sponsors who made this year’s Fringe possible.
