Cirkör House
Getting here
Cirkör House is located at Rotemannavägen 22 in Alby. We are next door to Subtopia, a creative cluster.
By public transportation: Take the subway’s red line towards Norsborg and get off at Alby. From there, follow the signs for Cirkus Cirkör and Subtopia—it’s about a 10-minute walk from the station. You can't miss the house—we have a giant logo on the roof.
Cirkörhuset (Cirkör House) in Alby is Northern Europe's largest circus hall – the place where 5-year-olds go to play circus games, where companies do teambuildings, where every fifth grader in Botkyrka Municipality has the chance to try circus, where adults find a new way to work out, where teenagers gather for drop-in, high school students grow together with teachers from all over the world and world-class circus artists create international performances. It is a house where there’s room for everything and everyone.
Take a Tour!
The training spaces in Cirkör House have around 10 meters of ceiling height, trampolines, rigging points on both the floor and ceiling, a tumbling floor, two foam pits, and everything that could be needed for most circus disciplines. Curious? Watch the video and join circus trainer Linda on a tour through our training- and production halls.
Accessibility in Cirkör House
There are two parking spaces near the Cirkör House's entrance for people with reduced mobility. The space is mainly free of thresholds, and all doors measure at least 80 cm wide. An elevator to the upper floor is available. However, there is no ramp for the level difference on the upper level. There is an accessible toilet. Cirkör House is partly accessible to the visually impaired.
Cirkör <3 Botkyrka
For 24 years, Botkyrka Municipality has played a major role in the development of circus in Sweden, through the establishment of Cirkus Cirkör in Alby. From the very beginning, Cirkör’s circus hall, offices and production premises have been open for residencies, training and activities for children and young people.
A series of activities take place within the framework of this collaboration every year. However, we also have working relationships with housing companies, civil society, and private actors. We constantly endeavour to find new projects, new partners, and fresh approaches that allow us to offer circus for everyone.
Cirkus Cirkör moved to Botkyrka Municipality in 2000 when we fell in love and realized we needed each other! Since then, Botkyrka Municipality and Cirkus Cirkör have had an annual “agreement on activities” with the following points of departure:• All humans are creative beings.
• Art expands the world.
• Circus enhances human development and provides the power to change oneself and the outside world.
• Circus inspires us to dare to take risks that allow for new opportunities.Tens of thousands of Botkyrka Municipality residents have experienced contemporary circus's inspiring performances and educational activities. Our priority target groups are children and young people, parents, educators, other school and after-school/recreation centre staff, and nursing home residents. Every year, we invest in different neighbourhoods where we identify a need for circus in schools and during leisure time.
