Becoming a partner of CIRC’UIT

  • CIRC'UIT is initially aimed at Belgian circus organizations (festivals, workshops, studios...) that want to support the creation and distribution of open-air circus performances. In time, international partners are also welcome. 

  • → Elke partner ondersteunt vanuit zijn/haar expertise. 

    → Each partner supports from his/her expertise.

    → Each partner makes an annual financial investment in the network. These funds serve firstly to support new productions. Secondly, to cover overhead costs.

    → Each partner commits to participate in consultation events and to conduct selection interviews with candidates. 

    → Sharing experience will initially be done through the network's own consultation moments. 

    → In time we will also share this experience with potential partner organizations, circus artists/companies and the general public. 

    → CIRC’UIT has internal regulations that all members must subscribe to. 

  • Becoming a member of CIRC'UIT is done by simple application and after consultation with the members of CIRC'UIT.
