Cirkus Syd

Cirkus Syd is a networking platform for international research, development and innovation based in Lund, Sweden.

Cirkus Syd is a platform to connect people, ideas and practises across borders and genres. We work in the cultural sphere using our expertise in contemporary circus arts, collaborate to inspire structural development and new opportunities.

We are excited by innovation, entrepreneurship, DIY, DIT and artistic research and champion culture as an agent for democratic participation. We are an international NGO with a global membership base and we invite collaborators, partners and stakeholders to create visionary and developmental projects bringing people together to explore transdisciplinary cultural practises in our society.

We were founded in 2018 and have quickly gained momentum and breadth of activity due to the extensive experience and capacity of the board. Our flagship project is Circus Thinkers Platform connecting independent voices across the globe.
We host a developing publishing house with a book shop and library.

In 2020 Cirkus Syd became host-organisation of Baltic Nordic Circus Network together with Riga Circus in Latvia. As such Cirkus Syd produces all the projects for BNCN and manages strategy and finances for the network.
