Part of MUCH Circus Festival.
You can attend the show with a daily ticket of MUCH Festival that is valid for all the rest of the programs as well. Here is the detailed line-up.
MUCH Circus Festival emerged to support artists in the field of contemporary circus in Central and Eastern Europe. Our goal is to connect the scattered Hungarian circus community and build bridges between like-minded artists, professionals, and festivals in the Central Eastern European region. The MUCH MORE Showcase is a competition of short-format contemporary circus acts. The artists presenting their work can win multiple prizes offering valuable future opportunities. The main prize, the More Grant is a year-long creation mentoring program and an invitation to premier the new work at the next edition of MUCH Circus Festival in 2027. The jury evaluates the submitted projects based on stage presence, the uniqueness of artistic vision and authorship, and the quality of circus skills.
