Fringe is back for 2025 and we have an epic line up organised!
This might just be our best one yet, but we’re biased so you’ll have to check it out for yourself.
If you haven’t heard of Fringe before (and let’s be honest, who hasn’t?) it is “the massively popular annual festival held in Perth that is enjoyed by hundreds of thousands of people” (self-described by Fringe, but we can vouch for it - it is massively popular).
With two spaces activated at The Stables during Fringe; dining room upstairs and the basement, there is something for everyone.
Get the crew together and book a few nights out over the month - good times and company guaranteed (we can’t 100% confirm the company part as we don’t know who you’re bringing with you but we’re sure they’ll be good time).
THE LINE UP

Lewis Spears
Jan 18th, 23rd, 25th, 31st
Feb 1stLewis Spears has been creating fake stories to trick his way on to mainstream media outlets his entire career. From pretending to be the famous Australian photographer “Clive Palmer” to fool an American Broadcasting reporter into eating a raw onion on TV to posing as a victim of a digital chastity cage hack for a Vice News Report, Spears is often in the news, but rarely as Lewis.
This year, he set a bigger challenge and somehow got himself cast in a full season of Australia’s biggest reality TV Dating show. Shipped off to an island undercover as a character, Spears had to use every trick in the book to go undetected and make it to air. This show is a dark, silly and outrageous dive into the wild stories behind the headlines with the man Media Watch calls “A Serial Pest”.
