Alberta Circus Arts Festival

Join us in Edmonton, from June 22nd – 25th, 2023, for the Alberta Circus Arts Festival, hosted by Firefly Theatre and Circus. We’ve planned four days of Canadian contemporary circus performances, along with professional development workshops for emerging and established artists, panels and discussions on sector development for industry professionals, and outreach opportunities for all. Local audiences will be treated to world-class Canadian contemporary circus on an intimate scale, showcasing artists from across the country.

The Alberta Circus Arts Festival is dedicated to the creation of a regional and national voice in contemporary Canadian circus. We are committed to sharing and experiencing world-class circus with our community in order to provide a launch pad for creativity, technical virtuosity, and collaborations. We seek to inspire, educate and entertain.
