Piggyback 2012
We’re the largest fringe festival in the world…per capita!
Piggyback will be 5 years old in June and everyone is invited to our birthday bash!
We’re very excited to say that we have a new venue – a 150-seat performance space in our brand new Wakefield La Pêche Community Centre. Another main venue is a dynamic church that is also outfitted with theatre sound and lighting with seating for 120.
And we have the infamous Black Sheep, Kaffé 1870 and Café Molo, a wild assortment of eateries, a 280-foot covered bridge over the Gatineau River that runs along the village and a whole lot of enthusiasm for the arts.
Wakefield is just “up the line” (a 25-minute drive) from Ottawa, the nation’s capital. We piggyback onto the Ottawa Fringe. It’s a symbiotic relationship – we work together to make it work for everyone.
