With shows, introductions to circus skills, workshops, acrobatics classes and stands organised by local partners, the On a la Dalle! event will put acrobats in the spotlight.

As a centrepiece this Sunday, 50 castellers from Paris will build Castells, human towers inspired by Catalan traditions, that can get as high as ten storeys high. They will come with people from Villejean-Beauregard and amateur musicians from the Cercle Celtique. By working together, we can go further and climb higher!

The original and spectacular show they perform involves physical prowess, mutual support and team work and is both breath-taking and heart-warming to watch. After the performance, young and old will be invited to try building their own Castells. This lovely Sunday afternoon will also feature a concert by MamyLove, organised by the Villejean community centre.

This event is organised as part of Ay-Roop [Circus Arts 2019] and Familles en mouvement, coordinated by the Villejean community centre and many local people from the Villejean-Beauregard neighbourhood.
