What are autonomous venues?Autonomous venues are venues that cooperate with TPAC. The venue operators have the right to arrange and decide on programs. Performers wishing to apply for these venues must submit a related plan and hold a meeting with the venue operator. Why do we have autonomous venues?Autonomous venues allow for more flexibility in the collaboration between venues and performers. Venue operators communicate with performers to select the most suitable programs in accordance with the usage, aesthetics, and operating philosophy of the venue, so as to create the greatest benefit to both the Festival and venues. Application process for autonomous venues February 19 (12:00) - March 1 (18:00): Application period. Please upload the proposal and fill out the application form.

Under Festival regulations, performers and venue operators may communicate with each other directly concerning technical and performance arrangements. The Festival and venues will hold a tech coordination meeting with performers prior to the performance. Performers must abide by the Taipei Fringe Festival Rules and Regulations. Performers must provide front-of-house and technical personnel for their performances.
