A fiery circus act, high-profile comedians and a gripping tale of trauma are among the exceptional line-up of 2018 Adelaide Fringe shows on sale now.

With tickets to 34 shows now available, the first taste of the 2018 program promises a good dose of comedy, dance, music, cabaret, theatre and much more.

Adelaide Fringe Director and CEO Heather Croall said Fringe-goers could expect another jam-packed festival full of events that will dazzle, inspire and challenge audiences.

"The events released on sale today cover a wonderfully broad range of genres and themes, and there's a great mix of new works and highly successful shows returning in 2018," Ms Croall said.

"It's always fun to give our audiences a sneak peek of what's on offer. We can't wait to launch the full program in December so everyone can see the huge variety of diverse events being held at next year's Fringe."

The shows on sale include the return of popular 2017 Fringe acts Blanc de Blanc, Fuego Carnal and Anya Anastasia: Rogue Romantic and from 2016 the hit show A Night at the Musicals.

Next year's festival will also feature the comedic talents of Wil Anderson, Dave Hughes, Kitty Flanagan and Joel Creasey.

Musical offerings will include the world premiere of Belly of a Drunken Piano by Stewart D'Arrietta, whose 2017 Fringe tribute show My Leonard Cohen received rave reviews.

Meanwhile Shell Shock, by Guy Masterson - Cit & Smokescreen Productions, is a darkly comic tale of an ex-army medic struggling with post-traumatic stress disorder and one of six theatrical works available for ticket purchases from today.

"We encourage festival-goers buy their tickets early and show their support for these Fringe artists. Don't miss out on seeing some new and exciting works next Fringe," Ms Croall said.

A second round of shows will go on sale on October 25 and a third round on November 15.

The full 2018 Adelaide Fringe program will be released on Friday, December 8, 2017.

The 2018 Adelaide Fringe will run from 16 February to 18 March.
