Belfast Arts Festival to Feature Moroccan Circus and Outdoor Theater

A Moroccan circus and an "open-air theatrical performance" will be on the menu for the next edition of the Belfast International Arts Festival (BIAF), which will be held in Northern Ireland in October.

In total, four events will be organized at CS Lewis Square as part of the 60th edition of the Belfast International Arts Festival (BIAF), reports Belfast Telegraph. The program has not yet been fully unveiled. So far, an "open-air theatrical performance" and a Moroccan circus are planned. The latter will be presented by Said Mouhssine, an acrobat, tumbler, actor, stuntman and Parkour instructor.

"The events planned for 2022 include a mix of theatrical performances and interactive workshops. Crystal Palace is an open-air theatrical performance featuring a local community cast," says Belfast City Council (BCC).

"The Belfast Agenda sets out our shared vision for the city, our long-term ambitions and outcomes, as well as priorities for action every four years. Developing a ’Transformative Places’ approach across the city offers a real opportunity to highlight the proximity of key transport links, the Connswater Greenway and arterial routes."
