Hupstate Circus Festival 2024 - Performing Arts Events - StageLync
Ithaca, NY - Get ready for an unforgettable Labor Day Weekend as the Hupstate Circus Festival unveils its exciting lineup, featuring 10 outstanding indoor shows and 5 thrilling outdoor performances.

Now in its fourth year, the festival has become a destination for performance lovers from all over the USA.

Headlining this year’s program is the US premiere of Play Dead, the highly anticipated debut show from the renowned Montreal-based People Watching Collective. Offerings include a diverse program containing free and ticketed shows, indoor and outdoor performances, family-friendly, and late-night shows.

Festival highlights include the first-ever swinging trapeze on Cherry St, free circus shows at the Press Bay Backlot, the interactive All Things Circus Zone for all ages, and a vibrant puppet and circus parade through downtown Ithaca.

There will be contributions from circus artists from the USA, Ecuador, Colombia, Australia, South Africa, Sweden, France, Finland, and Canada.

In addition, audiences will be able to see a show by world-famous juggler Jay Gilligan, watch the return of Ithacan Simone Stevens performing aerial rope after three years at circus university in Sweden, and witness a high-flying circus show from Montreal that takes place on top of a food truck!
A fundraising cabaret in support of the festival will be held Sunday evening to support the ongoing efforts of the organization to elevate the circus art form.

Our venue partners, including Cherry Artspace, Hangar Theatre, Community School of Music and Arts, Downtown Ithaca Alliance, Press Bay Backlot, and the Allan H. Treman Marina Park, are committed to making the festival accessible to everyone.

Most shows will feature American Sign Language interpretation, and all venues are ADA compliant.
