Action in the street

THE FIRE NINJA

Experience the thrill and excitement of Fire Ninja, the biggest high-energy ninja-style fire show on the planet! This show is packed with high-energy fire and explosive performances that will take your breath away. From the moment you arrive, you’ll be amazed by the world-class skills on display. From the breathtaking ability to shoot fireballs to the jaw-dropping fire-breathing stunts, all culminating in a massive mushroom cloud explosion, you’ll be left in awe.

FRASER HOOPER

Funny Business… Fraser skilfully blends improvised interaction and brilliant comedy into a zany show – complete with a stunt duck, a human fish and a boxing match. Who dares to take on the award-winning New Zealander? A performance that’s a workout for your abs too! Award-winning clown and festival favourite Fraser Hooper invites you to a hilarious mime show with all the ingredients of family comedy, hilarious audience participation, a few pinches of the ridiculous and a lot of disregard for the safety of the artist

 

 

ANNA KRAZY

Contemporary circus from Estonia. “All Strings Attached” is a fascinating contemporary street show combining dance, acrobatics and contortion! Together, bound by ribbons, we explore our collective fears and recharge our batteries with positive energy. Deeply moving! A story about trust and solidarity. It moves the audience to tears and makes them pause for thought. Anna Kristin contorts her body as if she had no bones and performs tricks that will take your breath away! This heart-warming, graceful and astonishing show is a must-see!

GRANT GOLDIE

Not just a juggling show, but rather an assault on gravity with projectiles. Goldie controls his juggling balls beyond the pull of gravity. Funny, precise, engaging and charmingly virtuosic! A man and his fall in a world of chance and possibilities create a wordless happening of interactive participation, mesmerizing manipulation, charming virtuosity and great artistry.

 

LOTTA & STINA

Watch as these two performers defy gravity with stunning partner acrobatics and daring feats on the rola-bola, where balance can shift to chaos in an instant. But it’s not just their incredible strength and innovative technique that will leave you in awe — their 50s-style charm, quick wit, and hilarious mishaps will keep you laughing from start to finish. In the end, the show celebrates the beauty of imperfection, reminding us that true joy comes not from perfection, but from embracing the unexpected and finding humour in life’s little mistakes.
