In 2024, the Czech Contemporary Circus Association sponsors Czech participation in the Circus Night event (La Nuit du Cirque) organized by Territoires de Cirque on November 15-17, 2024.
Created in 2019, La Nuit du Cirque is a major cultural event that celebrates all facets of the contemporary circus across France and around the world.
This unifying and festive moment takes place every autumn in order to share the vitality and diversity of this resolutely popular and demanding art form. La Nuit du Cirque is dedicated to promoting the social and environmental commitments of the contemporary circus as well as its intercultural and intergenerational dimensions.
It is a snapshot of the diversity of circus creation at a given moment, that tells the story of an art form in permanent evolution and fully open to the major issues that are being debated in society.
La Nuit du Cirque is an international event to promote contemporary circus creation, initiated and organized by Territoires de Cirque with the support of the French Ministry of Culture, in collaboration with the Institut français and assistance from Circostrada, ProCirque (Switzerland), BUZZ and Forum Neuer Zirkus (Germany), the FFEC – French Federation of Circus Schools, the FEDEC – European Federation of Professional Circus Schools, Circuscentrum (Belgium) and the Czech Association of Contemporary Circus (Czech Republic).
