Kids Program

At NICA, our workshops are the perfect place to learn circus skills, make new friends, and have loads of fun! Kids can join for a single workshop, or dive into multiple workshops across the program.
Leap Into Circus kicks off every morning and is action-packed with circus! Fly through the air, tumble across mats, balance in style and learn cool tricks. In the afternoons, the adventure continues with a Day at the Circus, where each day features a fun-filled circus theme, check out our timetable below to see what surprises are in store for kids aged 5-12.
For kids aged 7–12 our AERIALkids workshops run on select afternoons to climb, hang, spin, and roll through the air. It’s high-flying fun for those who want to continue after our Leap Into Circus workshops.
Teen Program
