FiRCO is the Ibero-American Circus Festival. Already consolidated as a benchmark festival on the international scene, FiRCO returns to the ring to celebrate its sixth edition and continue working on its objectives: to promote and consolidate high-level circus in Latin America.

FiRCO will take place from September 29 to October 1 at the Teatro Circo Price in Madrid, the largest stable circus in the country, living history of the sector, the best possible continent for an event of these characteristics. FiRCO is the only festival focused on Ibero-America, celebrating a great event with 9 artistic proposals of different disciplines selected among the 23 countries of this region. The event will consist of a circus gala that we will be able to enjoy during 3 consecutive days. In these galas, the artists compete against each other and before a specialized jury, which will decide on the best proposals that will compete for the awards that will be presented after Sunday’s gala. All this presented by actress Raquel Molano and enlivened by the live music of the Ombligo Band. FiRCO is more than a festival, so during its development parallel events will be held as a meeting between industry professionals and artists. This edition is supported by grants from the Ministry of Culture and Sports and the Madrid City Council. In addition to collaboration with important companies in the circus sector such as Circo del Sol, CircusTalk, Zirkólika, 441 Malabares and Juegos Malabares.
