the festival siteFor us, the terrain on the Tempelhof field is more than a mere venue. Since the beginning of the first festival the site has been an oasis in the big city, a place for discovery, joy, exchange and interaction.
With much love to detail, dedication and passion the festival team designs and develops during 10 days a unique festival site, offering us all a place for a unique Berlin Circus Festival. We look forward to bringing this place to life together with you! |
