The Winnipeg Fringe Theatre Festival is a 12-day alternative theatre festival held each year in July in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.

Primarily held in venues in Winnipeg's historic Exchange District, it currently ranks as the second-largest independent fringe theatre festivals in North America.[1][2] The festival is presented by Royal Manitoba Theatre Centre, the only regional theatre in Canada to produce a fringe festival.[3]
