INAC – Instituto Nacional de Artes do Circo

Instituto Nacional de Artes do Circo is an international centre dedicated to the arts of the circus. Based in Vila Nova de Famalicão, its mission is to boost and promote Contemporary Circus in Portugal via its Professional Course, to create shows through its Cia Umpor1 project, and to offer artistic residences to Portuguese and foreign companies. INAC also supports emerging artists, by organising the CUPULA Circus Village Festival in Arcozelo (Vila Nova de Gaia), as well as its Circo de Papel project, hosted in a heated 1800m2 tent with 330 seats. INAC is exclusively dedicated to the development of artistic creations for all audiences, thus divulging the circus across the various layers of Portuguese society.
