ValenCirc 2026: Circus at La Nau Before Its Closure
The XIV ValenCirc Festival arrives in Valencia with over fifty free contemporary circus shows, physical theatre, and street performances. Among them, 'Abans de caure' will be presented at the La Nau Cultural Centre of the University of Valencia, which will temporarily close its doors after this edition to undergo renovations. The festival, running from 26 September to 11 October 2026, takes advantage of this historic venue to offer a diverse programme before its pause.
A Show Without Confirmed Details
While the ValenCirc Festival has announced the inclusion of 'Abans de caure' in its programme, no specific details about the company, duration, or theme of the show have been released yet. What is known is that it will be part of the festival’s free activities at La Nau, a venue with limited capacity that has required advance booking for some performances in previous editions.
The festival, celebrating its fourteenth edition in 2026, remains committed to accessibility and artistic innovation. In addition to La Nau, ValenCirc will occupy other iconic spaces in the city, such as the Jardines del Palau, Teatro de lo Inestable, and Sala Matilde Salvador, with proposals ranging from juggling and acrobatics to theatrical performances and inclusive circus.
La Nau: A Temporary Farewell Stage
La Nau, the University of Valencia’s cultural centre, hosts a ValenCirc programme for the last time before its temporary closure. The venue, a benchmark for the performing arts in the city, bids farewell with this festival, which has attracted thousands of spectators in previous editions. While 'Abans de caure' lacks detailed information, the festival’s context—with over a decade of history—ensures a proposal aligned with contemporary circus and live arts.
To attend, check the festival’s official programme and verify if booking is required, especially in venues with limited capacity like La Nau. All activities are free.
