Experience Cirque de France—world-class acrobats, aerialists, thrilling stunts, and unforgettable family entertainment under the Big Top!About this Event
🎪 Cirque de France is Coming to Cochrane, AB!
For generations, families across Europe packed circus tents.
They came to see something they couldn't experience anywhere else—world-class acrobats, breathtaking aerial acts, and performers who trained their entire lives for one unforgettable moment in the spotlight.
Now that tradition is coming to Cochrane.
This isn't a knockoff. It's not a franchise.
Cirque de France (formerly Europa Super Circus) is produced by Desire Cardinali Chaves, a seventh-generation performer from Portugal's legendary Cardinali circus family.
The cast is just as extraordinary. Tightwire artists trained in Paris. Contortionists who've performed with Cirque du Soleil and the Moulin Rouge. A Cyr Wheel World Champion. An FMX rider who will have your family on the edge of their seats.
Old-world circus artistry meets jaw-dropping modern thrills under one Big Top.
Why Families in Cochrane Keep Coming Back
✅ World-class talent up close. No giant screens or distant arena seats—our Big Top puts you close enough to feel every moment.
✅ Entertainment for every age. Aerialists, tightwire artists, comedic clowns, roller skaters, and freestyle motocross keep kids and adults captivated from start to finish.
✅ A true family tradition. Many of our performers come from circus families spanning five, six, and even seven generations.
✅ Limited engagement. We're only in Cochrane from September 24 through September 27. Once the tent comes down, we're gone until the next tour.
