The NZ Fringe team just spent the weekend in Melbourne thanks to Wellington International Airport and Jetstar who now fly to Melbourne from Wellington! Apart from an epic weekend checking out how the Melbourne Fringe Festival do things and experiencing extraordinary fringe arts, the team were able to select a winner for the annual Tour Ready Award presented by both festivals to one show from each festival, a kind of cultural exchange and artist development opportunity supported by Creative New Zealand.

NZ Fringe director Hannah Clarke was thrilled to present the winner of the tour ready award in person on Saturday night to The Internet is Where Innocence Goes to Die and You Can Come Too by Zin Partnership, an interactive digital piece of live art you will definitely want your phone fully charged for. The work will be presented at BATS Theatre in February 2017 as part of the NZ Fringe Festival in Wellington.
