What must once have been a magnificent tent lies desolately on the ground. With a diameter of 16 metres, it invites you to sit down and relax. Together with the audience and bystanders, the structure is straightened out and a performance unfolds. Cirkelgewelf is made for aerial acrobatics, climbing and rope techniques and carries some well kept secrets. Get ready for a performance in a structure as high as 9 metres.

Cirkelgewelf is not only an installation but also offers a learning path to aspiring circus artists. As of December 2020, a group of young acrobats from Ell Circo d'Ell Fuego were working on further exploring the possibilities of the Circular Vault and trying out new techniques. At the Circolo Festival (NL), co-producer of the project, fourth-year students of circus school Acapa in Tilburg were given the opportunity to demonstrate their skills in presence of a wide audience. They will also help to produce the show at the MAD Festival.

Get ready for a performance in a construction of no less than 9 metres high!
