The first two days were dedicated to the competition shows (Spectacle A and Spectacle B), allowing the public to discover all the competing acts. Saturday was dedicated to the jury's deliberations and professional meetings of Club PRO. On Sunday, January 26, the traditional Laureates' Show concluded the festival by presenting the acts awarded by the jury.
This edition confirmed the festival's international reach, with artists representing Europe, North and South America, Asia, and Africa, in disciplines ranging from acrobatics to trapeze, juggling to contortion, tightrope walking to hand balancing.
