The National Circus of Ukraine (Національний цирк України) is standing on the Victory Square (Площа Перемоги) in the capital Kiev. It was opened in 1960.

Big circus building

National Circus of Ukraine is the neoclassical monumental building with portico, central dome and apex. The building wasn’t built in the style of socialist classicism, it was waived by the beginning of the thawing period on excessive decor.

Today this building still illuminates the Soviet past as well. In time the surface design of this building has been greatly simplified.

Own orchestra and sugar wool

In the National Circus of Ukraine permanent building the kids and their parents, carers and grandparents are happy about buffets, sugar wool, candies…

For each circus number accompanies its own orchestra! Can you imagine something more magnificent? Places here are enough for the musicians and spectators – the building accommodates 2.000 visitors.

Many animals, many action

Yes, there are the number programs not only with dogs, but also with bears, parrots etc. Pay attention! It’s not “Cirque du Soleil”!

Here, wherever your eyes go, you’ll see something going at every point of the scene.

Project’s  programs – new every year

In 2016 the “Circus in the Water” (“Цирк на Воді”) project’s  program “Water and Fire” (“Вода та Вогонь”) became international recognition.

Last year, in November and December 2017 the circus invites to the performance “Supermen in the Arena” (“Супермени на Арені»).
