Digital Marketing Coordinator - Canada Summer Jobs

Job Title:

Digital Marketing Coordinator - Canada Summer Jobs

Organization:

Vancouver Fringe Theatre Society

Deadline:

May. 12, 2026

Organization Description:

Fringe festivals serve as an inclusive space for all artists, whether emerging or established, providing a space for them to showcase their work. Mainstage performances are uncurated, meaning the artists are chosen through a lottery draw. Artists pay a proportionate fee to participate and receive subsidies that cover the remainder of costs. Artists also receive all the profits from ticket sales. This ‘artist-first’ approach fosters an environment of true creativity and experimentation. The Vancouver Fringe Theatre Society was formed in 1983 by a group of local artists who had a common goal: to provide a platform for independent artists. The Society held its first Fringe festival in 1985. We now hold the annual Vancouver Fringe Festival every September. Through our work we aim to foster a dynamic community of independent and emerging live performance through artistic development, arts advocacy, and the platform of an annual Festival. The administrative office of the Fringe festival is located on the ancestral, traditional, and unceded territory of the Musqueam, Squamish, Tsleil-Waututh Nations, on a place known as Sen̓áḵw.
