Our Initiatives
At CircusWest, we’re always looking for new ways to grow, improve, and connect with the larger community. Here are some of our current initiatives.
Space needs initiative
Due to exponential growth since moving into the PNE Gardens, CircusWest is looking to develop a satellite location in which to expand recreational, corporate and professional programming, and to use as a performance venue for cabarets, events, and productions. Working with the City of Vancouver, HCMA Architects, and ArtScape BC, CircusWest has developed a strategy and support material to engage local government, developers, and change makers in our dream to create an auxiliary venue for circus training and performance in Vancouver.
CircusFest 2019
CircusWest will celebrate its 35th anniversary with a summer circus festival from July 5-8, 2019. Designed to engage, inspire, and celebrate West Coast circus, CircusFest will feature workshops, community engagement, forums, pop-up performances, street theatre, and circus productions from local, national, and international artists and groups.
