Open Tents

Open Tents are a perfect opportunity to expand your skill set and give an opportunity to learn new circus acts. Open Tents are also the only way to meet the prerequisite for the Circus Spectacular. Please read below to read the qualifications for auditioning for Circus 6.

• Circus Spectacular will be open to students entering Grade 3 and above for the 2026–2027 school year.

• Before attending Open Tents, you will fill out a self-evaluation form which tells us what your main interests are, where you are at in terms of skill level, and what acts you would like to try. Filling out this form indicates to us that you would like to be evaluated to participate in the Circus Spectacular. Without this form, you will not be evaluated and will not receive an invitation to perform. 

• There are 4 open tent dates set throughout the summer. You must attend at least 2 of the 4 open tents in order to meet the prerequisite. During these Open Tents, you will be given instruction and guidance on your desired interest, as well as evaluated on your skill-set by our staff. 

• There will not be a traditional sign up for the Circus Spectacular. If you meet the prerequisites and meet and/or exceed the safety standards during evaluations for the acts in which you would be placed, you will be invited to perform in the Circus. If selected to be a performer in the upcoming Circus Spectacular, you will then be sent a link to sign up to perform in the Circus Spectacular.
