“Manege frei” for the “Circus-Theatre Roncalli”. From September 11th to October 06th 2024, the Vienna Town Hall Square will be transformed into a multimedia spectacle.

“Spectacle between nostalgia and modernity”

The “Circus-Theater Roncalli”, probably the most wonderful circus in the world, is once again inviting you to its iconic blue and white striped tent on Vienna’s Rathausplatz. Under the motto “ARTistART”, the phenomenal success of last year’s “All for ART for All” is continued and traditional circus art is combined with the most modern elements from film, theater, music and painting to create a thrilling and multimedia spectacle!

Roncalli’s worldwide unique 300-degree holography, breathtaking costumes inspired by Andy Warhol to Frida Kahlo, world-class artists & loving clowns, plus the sound of the big stars from rock & pop like Bowie or the Beatles are perfectly arranged to create an intoxication for the senses.

It has been 45 years since Bernhard Paul founded the famous Circus Roncalli together with fellow artist André Heller. Since then, Roncalli has revolutionized circus art and inspired the people of Europe, beginning with his world premiere of “the greatest poetry in the universe” in Bonn.
