"Exceptional and awesome! A dream world where sensuality,
tenderness, humour, and yes, emotion blend perfectly
with acrobatics, daring and surprises." - Journal de Montréal


What self-respecting child hasn't entertained the fantasy of running off with the gypsies and joining the circus? A life that is wild and free, untouched by shopping malls and television programmes...

Inspired by the wandering spirit and traditional folklore of the gypsies, Nomade, Cirque Éloize's latest creation, invites you on a surreal journey along the highways and byways of their imagination. A community of international performers stages a carnival filled with its unique blend of acrobatics, aerialists, comic timing and infectious music. These nomadic travellers wander through their own memories and dreams to a place that's strangely familiar, boisterous, and lyrical.

Cirque Éloize, a leading force in Quebec's thriving 'Cirque Nouveau' movement, has been travelling around the world for over a decade. This troupe of skilled acrobats and athletic dancers perform a magical brand of circus artistry that draws on the big-top tradition - and yet is entirely original. Since its inception, this award-winning Canadian troupe has performed for more than two million spectators in more than 200 cities and 20 countries.

Cirque Éloize is the circus as choreographed spectacle at its most spectacular!
