        <text id="20120515adb79d03421645d6a0000456">1.&amp;#x9;Of the total 6,532 performances or sessions held during the 2012 Fringe, 237 were cancelled.</text>
        <text id="20120515adb79d03421645d6a0000457">The Fringe is unable to provide the numbers of tickets that remained unsold. While the Fringe has accurate figures of ticket sales through FringeTIX and other ticketing partners, it does not receive full figures on tickets sold as door sales by venues and artists and therefore has no mechanism to determine the number of unsold tickets.</text>
