Salisbury Fringe Carnival | Adelaide Fringe | 20 & 21 Feb 2026
Get ready for two huge days of free, family-friendly fun as the Salisbury Fringe Carnival returns to Carisbrooke Park on Friday 20 and Saturday 21 February 2026.
Running across Friday night from 6pm to 9.30pm and all day Saturday from 12pm to 9.30pm, the Salisbury Fringe Carnival brings the colour, creativity and excitement of Fringe closer to home. Enjoy free rides for all ages, live music, dazzling performances and a vibrant carnival atmosphere right in the heart of Salisbury.
The entertainment line-up is packed with energy, headlined by popular cover band Mr Buzzy, performing Saturday night with all your favourite hits from Queen, ABBA, Grease, Michael Jackson, Beyoncé and Bruno Mars. Throughout the weekend, be entertained by fire twirlers, live performers, stunt acts and a mix of Fringe performances inside The Little Palais circus tent.

There’s plenty for kids and families to enjoy, including a giant three-lane Super Slide, a dedicated kids’ zone, a silent disco with sensory vests, and a quiet sensory space for those who need a break from the action. Thrill seekers and little ones alike will find rides and activities to suit them.

When hunger strikes, explore a wide range of food and drink options from local vendors, serving everything from pizza, yiros, dumplings and baked potatoes to classic carnival treats like fairy floss, dagwood dogs, donuts and ice cream. A licensed bar area will also be available.
With free entry, free rides and entertainment for all ages, the Salisbury Fringe Carnival is the perfect way to experience Fringe fun together as a community.
Entry to the carnival is free and tickets are not required.
