The Provincial Council of Córdoba, through its Culture Department, has launched a new edition of the festival Volantino. Festival of Circus and Street Arts. The event aims to bring contemporary circus and performing arts to smaller towns, promoting access to innovative cultural experiences and using public spaces as meeting points.
This initiative, running from June 24 to July 15, will feature a diverse program combining disciplines such as contemporary circus, physical theater, clowning, juggling, acrobatics, live music, and movement arts. The festival seeks to offer quality performances from leading national companies and Andalusian artists, reaffirming the commitment to local culture.

“"Every year we go to different municipalities to bring them top-quality, first-hand contemporary circus with great artists, who participants and professionals working on the shows can later talk to."
