Circulations 2026 | performance with the participation of the jury and the vote of the Audience

The Etude Competition is the heart of the Eastern European Festival of Contemporary Circus CIRKULACJE — a place where passion, artistry and creative courage of contemporary circus artists meet. The finalists from Central and Eastern Europe, selected from dozens of entries, will present their author's studies to an international jury and audience.

Which shows will win the recognition of the jury, and which will win the hearts of viewers? Each etude is a separate story and its own artistic language. In addition to well-known disciplines, you will also see new forms of artistic expression that constantly expand the boundaries of the modern circus. Each performance competes for one of the main prizes, and the audience will choose the winner of the Audience Award.

CIRKULACJE is a celebration of the New Circus — an art that impresses with technique, moves emotions and tells stories without words. This is a circus without the participation of animals, in which the main thing is people, their imagination and extraordinary skills.

Witness the birth of new circus stars! Come and let yourself be amazed!
