International Circus Arts Festival "Without Borders" in St. Petersburg: Anniversary Show Without Borders

The International Circus Arts Festival "Without Borders" reopens its doors at the Great St. Petersburg State Circus. This year, the event celebrates its fifth anniversary and promises to be one of the most significant events in the world of circus.

From October 12th to 15th, audiences will enjoy four days of captivating shows, where artists from all over the world will showcase their skills. The festival program features performances by talented artists from around the world, who will present both traditional acts and innovative productions. The arena will bring together renowned masters and emerging talents, ready to amaze and inspire the audience.

The Great St. Petersburg State Circus is the festival's historic venue. Its walls have witnessed many great performances, and its unique atmosphere creates the ideal conditions for a true celebration of circus arts.

The festival's history began in response to Russian artists' refusal to participate in an international competition in Monte Carlo. Thanks to the initiative of Minister of Culture Olga Lyubimova and the support of the Russian State Circus Company, the first "Without Borders" festival took place in 2022, and has since become an annual event.

Over the years, the festival has brought together more than 700 artists from 30 countries, demonstrating that art knows no boundaries. This event is a celebration of talent and skill that can overcome any distance.
