Festival Ekilibr — edition 2026
Ekilibr is the contemporary circus festival of the Montpellier Metropolis (Hérault), supported by Domaine d'O (European City of Theatre). It is not a music festival: the program brings together professional and emerging companies as well as artists from major national and international circus schools, focusing on acrobatics, juggling, balance, clowning, and cabaret.
The festival takes place every autumn (from late September to late October) under a big top and in unusual venues, in Montpellier and several municipalities of the Metropolis (a dozen shows spread across the territory). Recent editions: 13th edition from September 27 to October 26, 2024.
The dates and program for the 2026 edition are not yet published (ticket sales usually open in September). Information and reservations on the Domaine d'O website.
