August 14 – September 1: Prague to Host Festival of New Circus Letní Letná

The international festival of new circus and theatre, Letní Letná 2024, will take place in Prague from August 14 to September 1.

The festival will feature over 200 performances, workshops, concerts, and various acts by circus artists from 14 countries, including a special program for children.

This year marks the twenty-first edition of the festival. Letenské sady park will once again be the main venue, with tents set up to create a mini-town complete with a coffee shop and an evening bar.

Many performances will be free of charge. Additionally, the festival will offer a rich and varied daily program: children’s shows, circus, juggling and acrobat workshops, music concerts, exhibitions, lectures, creative workshops, and more.

The new circus, a genre of stage art that emerged in France in the 1970s, blends traditional circus elements with other forms of art to create conceptual productions.
