The Cúpula — Circus Village Festival is an event dedicated to circus that has been growing over time. The festival decided to expand its presence and start occupying the city of Vila Nova de Gaia, no longer being limited to a single space.
This expansion represents a significant change in the way the event is organized. The festival is experimenting with a new format that allows it to have a broader presence in the city, possibly with multiple locations or activities spread throughout the territory of Vila Nova de Gaia.
The event brings with it the tradition and art of the circus to the urban context of this Portuguese city. This initiative allows residents and visitors to have access to circus manifestations in a city environment, bringing this art form closer to a wider audience.
