No. The program mixes shows for young children, families, all ages and adults. Check who each show is for in the festival program before you pick one.

Most activities are free and staged outdoors in public space, so you can turn up and watch.

Where does most of it happen?

The busiest days are in the Jardins del Palau de la Música, with food, drinks and a play area. Other shows run at Teatre El Musical, city libraries, CC La Nau and in Paiporta, Alboraia and Massamagrell.

About

ValenCirc is Valencia's festival of contemporary circus, run by the inclusive company Sargantana Circ Inclusiu. Most of it happens outdoors, with the busiest days in the Jardins del Palau de la Música: acrobats, jugglers, aerialists, clowns and late fire shows, plus food stalls and a play area. Kids can join hands-on circus workshops, some taught by performers with intellectual disabilities. A few evening shows and concerts suit adults more than kids.
