Touring, Programming, and Funding Big Tops in Europe

Resources
Written By Axel Satgé

Circostrada commissioned us to co-write a guide on Touring, Programming, and Funding Big Tops in Europe.

This hands-on guide is stemming directly from the first edition of SPARK, a transdisciplinary laboratory organised by Circostrada, in collaboration with Festival Circolo, which took place in 2022 in Tilburg, in the Netherlands.

Aimed at artists, producers and venues wishing to produce shows in a big top in European countries, you will find inside practical tips and in-depth articles on:

  • administration

  • financing

  • organising tours in Europe

  • technical, logistics and security

  • Environment

  • parenting

  • disability

  • diversity

  • advice from experts for artists and presenting partners

This guide was written by Axel Satgé and Déborah Boëno and illustrated by Vasco Maio and is available for free on the Circostrada website in English and in French.
