By popular demand, Phare, the Cambodian Circus, Phare Ponleu Selpak Association and the National Circus School of Phnom Penh announce the return of the Tini Tinou Cambodian Circus Festival.

The Tini Tinou International Circus Festival alternated between Phnom Penh and Battambang from 2007 – 2010. Phare Ponleu Selpak gathered artists from around the world, providing entertainment and artistic exchange between dancers, musicians and circus artists. The intercultural relations developed during the Festival stimulated creativity and human development.

Phare, the Cambodian Circus is honored to have been selected by The Delegation of the European Union of Cambodia for an exclusive Europe Day performance on May 9th in Phnom Penh, presenting the ideal opportunity to revive the Tini Tinou Circus Festival. The festival features Cambodian circus artists this year, with the intent to again invite international artists to future events.

The evening performances on May 7th & 8th begin at 6pm at the National Circus Tent next to Naga World and opposite the National Assembly. Artists from the National Circus School will provide 20 minutes of entertainment at the beginning of the evening, followed by a complete one hour performance of “Eclipse”, by Phare, the Cambodian Circus. This is a very special opportunity to see Phare, the Cambodian Circus in Phnom Penh as Phare artists rarely perform full shows open to the general public there.

The Tini Tinou Cambodian Circus Festival supports the sharing and development of Cambodian culture and arts by inviting free-of-charge underprivileged children and youth from different organizations such as Krousar Thmey, Pour un Sourire D’Enfant, Enfants Du Mekong,

Proceeds go to support the National Circus School of Phnom Penh.
