Notability
Another editor is citing
WP:EVENT as a standard of notability, but EVENT is about breaking news events and crimes etc not organized events like this. A
Fringe Festival like this has been found to be notable across many cities worldwide.
Fringe_theatre#List_of_fringe_festivals and yes precedent counts because many similar articles have survived deletion discussions.

Then let the community decide. They may well agree with you, although
WP:OTHERSTUFF is not an argument. Note also that
WP:EVENT mentions routine events such as sports matches, film premieres, press conferences.

Yes OtherStuff but the standard of notability is set mostly by precedent.

Given that fringe festivals can vary widely in notability (for example the
Edinburgh Fringe Festival is a very famous one), I don't see how there can be any precedent that would have any relevance in this, especially when some have also been deleted.
WP:N specifically noted that the topic needs to have gained sufficiently significant attention by the world at large, and if the coverage is only local, then they are not notable.
