CIRCUS

 

Circus meets street!
Every evening at 5:00 PM, + Saturday 24 and Sunday 25 at 3:00 PM

Every day at 5 P.M., with additional weekend shows at 3 P.M., Montreal’s circus troupes will perform on the outdoor stage. The weird but wise members of Pyraga , Patty Queen and Métalumeuses will unleash their fiery brand of entertainment and revolutionary spirit!

The perfect opportunity to witness the smouldering energy of the Walkyries as they perform their complete show, and to discover the other troupes, all united in the name of social solidarity!
