CircusFest 2012 returned to the Roundhouse from 28 March - 29 April, for five weeks of the best contemporary circus from around the globe. It featured major world and UK premieres in the Main Space from Cirque Mandingue's Foté Foré, Cirkus Cirkör's Undermän and Professor Vanessa's Wondershow.

Alongside the main space programme we had exciting new commissions from Il Pixel Rosso with The Great Spavaldos an immersive theatrical experience for two where you were cast as the central circus performers, new show CAMP from Scottee, a mixed bill with a stellar line up and a photographic exhibition from Phil Fisk entitled Everyday People that juxtaposed the extraordinary and ordinary to create new perspectives on circus in quintessentially English settings. 

This year we were also very proud to have the Magic Mirrors Tent at CircusFest, an atmospheric setting for our Circus Associate Artists Collectif and then... and their new show Lost Post and our very own Street Circus company to bring their first show Funk Da Cirque that brought the funk to the crowd.

CircusFest 2012 was our biggest and best line up so far. If you missed out take a look at the videos and photos below.
