Adelaide Fringe Creative Director and CEO Heather Croall said "The meetings we set up in the Honey Pot lead to touring deals and long term relationships between artists, venues and festivals around Australia and the world. The Honey Pot marketplace is a way for Fringe to support artists year-round, not just during the month of Fringe. It is amazing to see how the Honey Pot has built capacity for so many artists - it creates earning (and learning) opportunities for them year on year. The Honey Pot platform is strengthening creative industries in Australia and beyond."

Over the past 5 years Honey Pot has seen exponential growth with touring deals for artists growing ten fold since 2015, further solidifying the Adelaide Fringe's international reputation and industry recognition as an important launch pad for artists.
