Edinburgh’s circus arts scene continues to grow and evolve as CIRQULATION, Scotland’s circus cabaret night, marks its 10th edition with a performance at Assembly Roxy on Sunday 27 April 2025 at 6pm.
Presented by Delighters, the event offers a platform for both established and emerging circus artists from across Scotland. Each edition explores a different theme, and this time CIRQULATION turns its attention to Heritage, posing questions around cultural origins, ancestral connections, and the legacies we carry or leave behind.
The show, described as family friendly and spanning a wide range of circus disciplines, is part of a broader effort to increase access to contemporary circus across Edinburgh and Scotland. With an emphasis on community engagement, the event reflects Delighters’ continued commitment to developing circus arts as both entertainment and cultural expression.
Assembly Roxy, a well-known city centre venue, will host the event and is fully accessible, with wheelchair facilities, trained staff and a designated low-sensory area available if needed.
Tickets for CIRQULATION: Heritage are now on sale via the Assembly Roxy website, and early booking is recommended due to high demand at previous editions. A limited number of supported tickets are also available for those facing financial barriers—attendees are encouraged to get in touch directly for further information.
CIRQULATION is curated by Jusztina Hermann, with Rachael Macintyre as Assistant Director and Elinor Taylor as Producer. The project is supported by Creative Scotland and the National Lottery Funding, with additional sponsorship from Polifilm Media.
This spring’s performance also comes ahead of Delighters’ forthcoming touring show Journey, which will premiere at Assembly Roxy in September 2025 before touring across Scotland into 2026, supported by Creative Scotland’s Touring Fund.
For updates, artist announcements, and behind-the-scenes content, audiences can follow CIRQULATION on Facebook and Instagram.
