International Market of Contemporary Circus ^expired Free

Since 2015, TOHU and the MONTRÉAL COMPLÈTEMENT CiRQUE Festival have welcomed artists, presenters, and circus professionals from around the world to experience the magical live performance of the July Festival and engage in professional development, network, and marketplace activities through the MICC (Marché International de cirque contemporain).

Starting in July 2020, in the COVID context, the MICC will take on a digital dimension by offering online programming during its Market days (July 6-9). Following this launch period, with a goal of facilitating long-term connection, dialogue, and collaboration in our sector, the MICC Online will continue as an ongoing platform, featuring regular (monthly) online programming such as pitch sessions, working group meetings, and more.
