Festival Opening
2017: For the first time ever, Festival cirqu’ lasts a full ten days. The festival's opening is grand and loud: Stadtmusik Aarau and the French circus brass band, Circa Tsuïca join forces and transform the city into their stage.
In 2019, these two ensembles performed on Aargauer Day at the Fête des Vignerons in Vevey.
2025: Festival Cirqu’ celebrates its tenth anniversary, and naturally, this special edition wouldn’t be complete without another legendary collaboration between Circa Tsuïca and Stadtmusik Aarau.
The festival will begin in the Altstadt at 6:00 PM and conclude next to the Alte Reithalle, where the festival center is located. This fantastic spectacle will certainly not go unnoticed.

Like stepping back in time to ten years ago: Jörg Müller kicked of the first small edition of the cirqu’ festival in 2015 with his five aluminum pipes. Suspended from a long cord at a single point six meters above the ground, they hover in space. They move as if floating at times circling timelessly, at other times whirling wildly. «Mobile» is a continuous and precise dialogue between a juggler and his object.
