R\u012bgas cirks Residency Program welcomes applications from contemporary circus artists and artist groups (up to 4 persons and any of circus disciplines) from Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia.<\/strong><\/p>\n

R\u012bgas cirks is located in Riga, Latvia. It is one of the oldest purpose-built circus buildings in Europe. Built in 1888, it reopened its doors on November 30, 2022, after the reconstruction of the historical dome and arena. The R\u012bgas cirks Residency Program is created as a laboratory for new forms of artistic research and art practices within the circus field. Our main mission is to promote contemporary artistic practices, mainly focusing on circus development in Latvia and the Baltic region. During the residency, artists are expected to work on ideas for new performances.<\/p>\n
