Bornfire Circus Festival 2026

Over three days this September, Bornfire Festival will bring together local and international practitioners, teachers, and enthusiasts for workshops, performances, talks, and collaborative rituals.

Circus friends, artists, and practitioners from around the world – this is your chance to reunite, reconnect, and share in the community that has grown around Bornfire over the years!

Bornfire Festival 2026 marks the 20th anniversary of Bornfire Singapore, the collective behind Singapore’s longest-running community-led circus and flow arts festival. More than a programme of circus activities, Bornfire remains a community-initiated space where people of all ages, skills, and experiences can participate, connect, and share through circus arts.

this year's theme

For this anniversary edition, Bornfire Festival seeks to deepen its impact by shifting the focus from performance to human connection—responding to the emotional and social needs of a community navigating burnout, isolation, and the pressures of artistic perfection.

 

The theme, Humanity, offers a framework for honest conversations about what sustains us as individuals and as a collective—how we care for one another, sustain our creative practices, and keep the inner flame of community alive.
