The festival started out in 1998, with the aim of vindicating the art of modern clowns and showing audiences the revival of this type of performance. The event thus reflects the resurgence and creative energy of this discipline today.
AC/E is collaborating in the 13th festival by supporting the participation of Spanish artists Leandre and Tortell Poltrona.
The festival is currently acknowledged in France as the biggest event in the world of clowns. It is supported by the councils of Bagnolet, Les Lilas, Le Pré-Saint-Gervais, Romainville and Pantin (part of the Est Ensemble area that spans 9 towns) and also by Le Conseil General de Seine Saint Denis and by Le Conseil Régional d´Ille de France.
The festival is a meeting place for artists and audiences, for professionals and students, and allows viewers to visit the different places where the performances are staged.
