The Circus Manifesto was initiated by dr István Újhelyi, Member of the European Parliament, and officially presented in Monte-Carlo during the traditional Circus Directors’ Luncheon of the Fédération Mondiale du Cirque, on 22 January 2017.
The document was prepared on the base of numerous consultations with circus professionals and stakeholders. It summarizes the values of circus arts and focuses on the most important tasks in the future.
FMC’s Honorary President H.S.H. Princess Stephanie was the first to sign the Book of Supporters.
The Manifesto is a European initiative but its content has universal values and influence.
