Questions?   Submit   Circus Space is a registered charity and one of Europe’s leading providers of circus education. Based in a magnificent Victorian power station adjacent to Hoxton Square, we involve thousands of people in the creation and performance of circus arts every year. Over half of the annual income needed to run Circus Space comes from grants and donations.

Our diverse range of work includes the UK’s only BA Hons degree in Circus Arts, a structured progressive training programme for under 18s and professional development opportunities for aspiring and established performers. Adults and young people can take part in a range of recreational classes and we provide workshops and away days for the business community.

    Open House 2012, 22 - 23 September Shoreditch Electric Light Station opened 1896 and was the first to successfully generate electricity from the destruction of domestic waste. The site had lain semi-derelict for decades when, in the early 90s, a group of circus artists saw potential in its cavernous halls. Extensive restoration and reconstruction converted the building into what is now one of Europe’s leading circus training facilities. We’re opening our doors as part of Open House 2012 - offering a chance to visit our spectacular building and hear the story of its transformation from Victorian electricity generating station to circus school.
