Fővárosi Nagycirkusz
The Capital Circus of Budapest stands in Budapest, Hungary, inside a distinctive stone building dedicated to circus arts. Its circular ring hosts aerialists, acrobats, quick-change performers and animal acts throughout the year.
Generations of Hungarian circus families pass their skills from grandparents to young artists at the country’s circus academy. International performers, including acrobats from China, join local talent in changing productions. The programme also includes live violin music, themed spectacles such as Magic Around Christmas, and festivals honouring circus artists past and present.
Dogs and pigeons bring lighter moments between daring acts above the ring. Warm lights, applause and the scent of popcorn shape the experience before the performance even begins.
