SUMMER CIRCUS CELEBRATION

Kinetic Arts Center invites you to a celebration of Bay Area Circus.  Summer Circus Celebration is four days of workshops and performances featuring circus professionals from around the SF/Oakland Bay Area and beyond.

This annual event strives to connect and celebrate diverse circus communities.

No one is turned away from any part of the weekend for lack of funds.  

August 13 – 16, 2026

Four Days of Circus Wonderfulness

When we learned that the San Francisco Aerial Arts Festival had to schedule their event on the same weekend as ours (Aug 7 – 9, 2026), we started exploring how we could use the conflict to enhance our 2026 Summer Circus Celebration.  The result — this summer marks our 5th year of circus celebrations and moving our dates to the following weekend allowed us to offer more workshops, more performance opportunities and more circus!  

  • We’ve added an adult-themed show and increased from two to three evenings of performances,
  • We scheduled three days of workshops and three new pass offerings to take advantage of the amazing schedule of circus skills classes.
