Magic Circus Valo in Prinsenland
Magic Circus, Rotterdam's City Circus, presents "VALO" (Finnish for "Light"), because Magic Circus has been a beacon of light for its audiences for years. Awarded the Oscar Carré Trophy 2025.
VALO
The new generation of Finnish circus artists shines for the first time in the Netherlands. Together with Jofri, the Netherlands' best circus comedian, and the Polish circus princess Anna, they bring the esteemed audience a welcome change in these sometimes dark times: enlightenment and relaxation. A circus tent full of shining eyes as an acrobat is so overwhelmed by herself that she recklessly floats through the air in a headstand on a trapeze. Impressive jumps to insanely high human pyramids. Stunning magic tires, poetic acrobatic dance, and extremely agile handstands create a twinkle in the eye. And when things get a bit too exciting, comedian Jofri steps in to make everyone roar with laughter.
Magic Circus is the oldest and most modern tent circus in the Netherlands. The very last homegrown circus to travel for an entire season. Magic Circus is different; more than atmosphere and experience. Simply an affordable, cozy circus that gets under your skin through its intimacy. That moves you and never lets you go. Magic Circus is both breathtaking and captivating. The missing link between traditional circus and elite "new" circus. A circus where parents and grandparents laugh along with their (grand)children. Where students relax and marvel at the acrobats.
Winner of the 2025 Oscar Carré Trophy
This spring, Magic Circus made national news when circus owner Maurice Veldkamp was presented with the Oscar Carré Trophy by Youp van 't Hek. The Dutch circus "Oscar" for his career and as a recognition of his unique circus.
