Rototomcircus

circus

This space seeks to transmit all aspects related to contemporary circus and street art. We will emphasize its most social, cultural and even educational aspects in constant growth, where art becomes a form of communication and a driving force for change.

Our intention is to welcome artists from all over the world, from different circus disciplines such as clowning, juggling, acrobatics, slackline, etc, with the aim of creating a big multicultural circus laboratory in order to share and exchange knowledge, bring this art closer to all public and provide the festival with smiles, emotions and colours.

The Rototomcircus will be a very dynamic space, always open to improvisation and eagerness to explore the world of circus, which together with the Mágicomundo will present a wide range of activities for everyone. We particularly think of the large number of families that every year visits the festival with the intention of having a good time with the family. We remind you that the entrance will be free for all children under the age of twelve.
