Dear Circus Enthusiasts,
With lots of exciting things happening at Warehouse Circus, here’s a wrap of everything you need to know about this week!
☀️Summer Showcase - buy tickets here! Sunday 1st December☀️
2025 Artistic Program
The Canberra Circus Festival is BACK!
🎪Sep 27 to Oct 4, 2025, we're back with a week of big shows, big markets, big fun, and our national youth circus training intensive.
The circus festival brings some of the best in contemporary Australian and international circus to Canberra, with a focus on highlighting shows featuring Canberra or ex-Canberra artists.
It's a week of masterclasses for our Advanced performance troupe members, and troupes from around the country, working together, training together, performing together, forging friendships and a pre-professional network. Thy get directed by festival artists, and perform their new works to the public at our market day!
IT's the BEST. 🌟
And this year, we have a brand new initiative!
🎟️Our SAVE-A-SEAT program reserves a bunch of seats to family-friendly shows in the big top for clients of Canberra's community organisations who would otherwise rarely get to attend the theatre, with Canberra businesses and philanthropists shouting them their seat!
SO!
👪If you work for a community org or charity serving people who could really use a day at the circus, please get in touch with us to register your organisations interest in participating in the program!
AND
💼If you have a business that would like to support this program, you can shout us as little as one, or as much as a thousand seats! Businesses, organisations and individuals who sponsor the program will be listed in the program as donors (unless anonymity is requested), and on the CCF website.
We're so excited for this festival. It's all hands on deck, so if you would like to be involved with helping organise the fest, please get in touch with Tom at artistic_director@warehousecircus.org.au
