The place to grab a drink and chill
No summer is complete without a stop at a Fringe Festival patio or tent. Every location features an incredible line-up of Sea Change Brewing Co. beer, Village Brewery cider, wine from Bodegas Borsao, and a selection of non-alcoholic drinks including soda from Grizzly Paw Brewing Company. Minors are welcome if accompanied by an adult. Sit and chill in summer luxury.
Three Tents to visit!
ATB Park / Sea Change South Beer Tent
In the heart of the Festival Grounds, ATB Park is your destination for eats, treats, drinks, and entertainment. Grab a drink at the Sea Change South Beer Tent and prepare to be dazzled. Located between 83 and 84 Avenue, just off 104 Street.
Maclab Development Group Wine Tent
Noon or night…or noon again, the Maclab Development Group Wine Tent on 83 Avenue is the perfect perch during a hard day’s fringing.
Sea Change North Beer Tent
Catch Artists in their natural habitat between shows or partying late into the evening. Located north of the Streetcar tracks and south of 85 Avenue.
ATB Community Patio
Located in the heart of the Festival Grounds, the ATB Community Patio invites Fringers new and experienced alike to come on in from the bustle of Festival and rest those weary fringing feet, share favourite Fringe stories, plan out your show schedule, chat with our friendly Volunteers about how to make your Fringe awesome, and even enter to win a sweet prize or two (or 100 if you happen to be our next ATB Golden Ticket winner)!

PIE Garden is planned and facilitated by an industry professional third-party in partnership with Fringe Theatre and in compliance with all City of Edmonton Bylaws and AGLC regulations.
