National Centre for Circus Arts

Introduction

National Centre for Circus Arts is the UK’s creative hub for the development of world-class circus arts education, creation and performance

National Centre for Circus Arts is a registered charity and one of Europe’s leading providers of circus education. Based in a magnificent Victorian power station adjacent to Hoxton Square, London, we involve thousands of people in the creation and performance of circus arts every year. Over half of the annual income needed to run National Centre for Circus Arts comes from grants and donations.

Our diverse range of work includes the UK’s only BA Hons degree in Circus Arts, a structured progressive training programme for under 18s and professional development opportunities for aspiring and established performers. Adults and young people can take part in a range of recreational classes and we provide workshops and away days for the business community.
