Minister for Enterprise, Investment and Trade and Minister for Tourism and Sport, Stuart Ayresa??said it was exciting to see major events returning to Sydney's streets and venues, helping to support tourism and vital jobs within the arts sector.

"Intimate events like the Sydney Fringe Sideshow are a great way to showcase an amazing array of live entertainment talent and as we continue to work our way through this stage of the pandemic it's fantastic to see the arts sector continue to adapt to help us have fun and celebrate in the safest way possible," Mr Ayres said.

"We know it's been a difficult summer for our arts and entertainment industry and that's on top of a challenging two years, but we want to continue to provide opportunities for people to enjoy live entertainment and celebrate what our great capital city has to offer."

Kerri Glasscock, Chief Executive Officer of Sydney Fringe said, "Sydney Fringe is delighted to partner with the NSW Government to support literally hundreds of artists in this exciting activation. The last couple of years have been tremendously difficult for large scale public events and festivals, and Sideshow has been created in response to the continuing difficulties."

"Sydney audiences will be able to see some of Australia's most exciting artists in safe, intimate indoor spaces and outdoor performances. What an opportunity to experience the hidden buildings and heritage sites of The Rocks precinct in a whole new way. From performances in the Old Coroners Court to Terrace House takeovers this is a once in a lifetime activation and we are thrilled to share it with Sydneysiders," she said.
