Stop dreaming, start cartwheeling!
Whether you are 5 or 95, have a bendy body, a fear of heights or are already accustomed to spinning around your own shoulder, you can practice circus!
The Upper Secondary School for Circus
Train your body and your intellect at the same time during your three years at "Cirkusgymnasiet". The combination of theory, artistic work and training fit those who dream of a future as an international circus artist, and those who have other dreams but want to train and work artistically during their school years.
The Extraordinary History of Circus
The Extraordinary History of Circus is a vibrant family show. We explore our predecessors, from the edgy 90s to the 70s era of elephants and drumrolls, through the huge Barnum & Bailey shows to the birth of the modern circus in 18th-century Paris.
Where did it all begin? With the medeival jesters? Or Julius Caesar? Or even before? You can expect a wild odyssey about a world that has constantly pushed the boundaries of human ability – all for the sake of entertaining an audience.
The Extraordinary History of Circus is co-produced by Cirkus Cirkör and Uppsala Stadsteater, with its world premiere at Uppsala Stadsteater's circus tent in Gottsunda on July 26, 2025.

Northern Europe's largest circus hall
International artists, children and students train under the same roof in our our top-equipped circus hall.
Chill with Cirkör
Three Sundays each term, we open up our training hall for those who want to try training circus, practice parkour, hang out in our chillout corners, watch others train, have coffee or just step by to say hello.
Cirkör Crashes the Conference
Book Circus Artists to Your Event
Sophisticated somersaults or PG-18 pyrotechnics? We have been responsible for the entertainment at both large and small events since the 90s. We have both ready-made concepts ready to be booked, and the creativity to create something completely new.
Teambuilding in Northern Europe's Largest Circus Halls
Do you need to laugh together? Spend a whole or half a day in the circus hall together with our experienced circus educators. You can expect to leave the workshop with new insights, fun memories – and maybe a new party trick up your sleeve.
Social Circus
At Cirkör, as with circus companies worldwide, there's a strong tradition of using circus training to strengthen individuals and work for positive societal change. The term Social Circus describes circus as a social hub, a place for people to meet, an educational tool and a social actor.
