Unconventional Venue Category is for shows which activate indie black box or “storefront” spaces, non-traditional performance spaces, and experimental or immersive performance experiences. This may include physical spaces (i.e. galleries, community centres, etc.), or productions that are not tied to a common physical location for the audience.

1. Participants apply with a venue and are fully responsible for their rental agreements and any corresponding venue fees, the Festival does not intervene in any rental agreement.
2. The participant fee for this category is comprised of a base fee plus potential ticket revenue.
3. Participants must propose their venue for approval, and will be programmed on a first-come, first-served basis.
