National Circus Festival of Ireland
turns 21 this year (2022) and we have prepared a wondrous birthday festival for you. From shows of unspeakable beauty like NUYE by circus company Eia to festival favourites Circus Siamsa and the festival club Renegade Stage to a brand new show by Tumble Circus, commissioned by NCFI, in our festival big top, you will be spoiled for choice this November.

Geo Kalev is on the festival to share the Mini Art Foundations progresses and missions,
and here below he shares more from the first days at the festival.

“The second outstanding day of the National Circus Festival of Ireland started with an ISACS SHARE meeting of all representatives of organisations supporting circus in Ireland and the guests.
Here everyone is already up to date on the upcoming Mini Art Fest 13th for next year (2023), our active residency program at Mini Art Center in Sofia and the development of the social circus in Bulgaria.
The evening circus variety filled the hall and caused a sensation! Outstanding circus artists joined forces and created a rich circus spectacle.
Very emotionally and brought tears, the “Golden nose” was awarded to an artist who chose to make children from Ukraine laugh, right now, when laughter is rare there.
An incredible Renegade party burst the pub and gathered the young artists in a fantastic atmosphere.
Today I continue the journey into the Irish circus atmosphere”
