So many shows, so little time! The 2026 Rochester Fringe Festival, Sept 15-26, 2026, features a packed lineup of kid-friendly shows and hands-on activities. You'll find puppet shows, magic, juggling, circus-skills workshops, interactive theater, a puppy musical movie, toy-piano concerts, liquid-nitrogen science, chalk art, pumpkin painting, and the high-energy Disco Kids dance party. Several events invite kids to participate directly, from crafting and games to running away with the circus for an hour. Several activities are completely free!
