Circulation Festival

Circulation is the most widely known fire arts and circus skills festival in Aotearoa. Exploding into action every year in a bush-clad camp ground near Ōtepoti (also known as the Edinburgh of the Southern Hemisphere, or simply Dunedin), Circulation is the only community circus event held every year on the South Island, Te Wai Pounamu. This year's Circulation will be four days of "The greatest show on earth"; workshops, feasting, kid's zone, bonfires, live music, open mic. "renegade" shows, a Polish Show and party night, and a Masquerade Ball, running from Thursday 8 to Sunday 11 November. More details and ticket information:

Past Festival Director and veteran events manager Daniel Hendra (OUSA) returns to the fray this year, Co-Directing along with veteran clown and community developer Danyl Strype. Because Highly Flammable Inc. is not involved this year, we are in the process of setting up an Incorporated Society (Circulation Community Inc.) as the 'Big Top' to run the festival under. Dan and Strypey are joined by a top class Management Team of perfomance co-ordinators, arts administrators, site designers, theatre technicians, and general roustabouts who are so passionate about the festival we are now meeting every week to keep the ball rolling.

If you're coming this year, buy your tickets now! If you want to come next year, here's your chance to help make it happen. Our financial goals for this year are to cover costs, and plant a seed fund for next year's festival. At this stage, we are relying on your support to raise $2000 towards ingredients for the legendary Circ kitchen crew to work their tasty magic on. But wait - there's more! Lot's more bills to pay in fact, so if you love this festival, chuck in some bucks!
