About CIRKL

CIRKL, that's three days of high-quality circus performances in the centre of Leuven for young and old. The sixth edition of the circus festival in Leuven will take place from May 12 to 14, 2023 Party! The program includes many national and international artists with some premieres.

In 2017, CIRKL emerged from a long tradition of impressive circus festivals. The festival was an instant hit. Since the arrival of circus workshop CIRKLABO, the festival also has an additional offering: new, young and experimental work by artists who have been in residence in Leuven over the past year. CIRKL and CIRKLABO put Leuven on the map as a true circus city.

CIRKL is organized by 30CC and CIRKLABO, in collaboration with Cirkus in Beweging and the City of Leuven.

CIRKL 2023 has the warm support of the Flemish Government, the Province Vlaams-Brabant, the city of Leuven, UITPAS, De Zondag, Stella Artois, Cirkus in Beweging, Martin's Klooster, Resiterra, UZ Leuven, Capricorn Partners and Cas-co.
