Description:
The festival
On July 20-21-22 and 23, 2023, the Grootseminarie (Major Seminary) in Bruges will open its doors to Cirque Plus. For four full days, artists from both home and abroad will take over the most welcoming garden in Bruges, bringing with them the best of what circus has to offer today. Cirque Plus is an open-air festival for all things circus as well as a springboard for new circus talent. Our ‘Cirque Numerique’ event offers short, complete “numbers” (short circus acts) a place of their own within the festival programme.
For whom?
Artists who have completed training at a circus college, those who have received training at a circus workshop or those who are self-taught.
All circus arts are welcome: (aerial) acrobatics, balancing arts, juggling, clowning arts, magic and circus theatre.
Cirque Plus continues to focus on open-air performances for a wide-ranging audience.
This open call only applies to new or recent, short (!) and complete “numbers”. Soloists are also welcome.
What does Cirque Plus offer?
A daily allowance per artist per performance day and fix transport allowance.
A professional organization and facilities.
A (10x10m) performance area and a sound system.
The performances take place during the day and in the open air, so lighting is not provided. We do consider specific technical requests wherever possible.
The performer brings all other equipment (scenery, props, costumes ... / aerial acts provide their own equipment) needed to perform the act.
The performances are included in the festival programme and presented on the ‘Cirque Numerique’ performance area between or during the other performances at the festival.
There is a prize for the best act. A (professional) jury will judge the acts during the festival. The winner will get to perform as a supporting act for the circus tour of "Uitwijken Brugge" (July 2024 - www.uitwijken.be).
We have an enthusiastic and varied audience and offer networking opportunities with artists and professionals from the circus industry.
