Open Days & Visits

Degree Open Day

The next open day for our degree course will be running in our building on March 4th, 12pm-6pm. We will be opening our doors so that you can experience what it is to be a National Centre for Circus Arts student and to help you determine if the National Centre is the right place for you.

The day will give you the opportunity to:

• See classes as they happen
• Take a tour of the building
• Take part in a circus specialisation workshop*
• Watch students’ performance pieces ‘in progress’ (TBC)
• Ask questions and chat to current students and staff
• Learn about the admissions process and how to prepare for our auditions
• Learn about the circus landscape and career pathways

*Please note that there are limited spaces for the specialisation workshop and places will be secured on a first come first serve basis.
