ElementSircus is an annual experimental multimedia small-scale festival celebrating on the longest day and night of the year - Winter and Summer Solstice.
The costumed encouraged ElementSircus has seen the likes of many amazing experimental boundry breaking bands, performance artists, dancers, film and video artists, improv, freak shows, fire spinners, DJ's, circus acts, recycle artists, games, artisans, robots, bike briggade/ ballet, multimedia experimenters, stilt walkers, spoken wordists, percussionists, and the list goes on and on.
Currators of the event, Absent Sound have teamed up with Ragpickers Anti-fashion Emporium to host what many say is one of the most important underground cultural events to come out of Winnipeg. This festival would not be possble without all the incredible help from so many volunteers from the community throughout the years. This is an audience involved event from the costumes they wear to the percussion jams to organizing and performing.
