The JOMBA! Fringe programme is open to professional, experimental and up-coming performers and choreographers who are above the age of sixteen. This programme is for persons working specifically in the idioms of contemporary and fusion dance, which is in line with the mission statement of JOMBA! which is to support and promote the development of contemporary dance in KwaZulu-Natal. There is space for a maximum of eight works on this year's Fringe. Each participant will have an opportunity to showcase and perform their work on Tuesday, 30 August at the festival.

The Youth Fringe is open to dancers under the age of sixteen years old and entry is free of charge. It is a support initiative for the various 'Dance Development' projects operating in KZN and provides a space to celebrate young up-and-coming dancers. Different dance styles are welcomed in this platform. The youngsters will have an opportunity to showcase their talent on Sunday, 28 August at the Pieter Scholtz Open Air Theatre at the University of KwaZulu-Natal (Howard College Campus).
