ALWAN… A Colourful Celebration of Childhood  

After the beautiful success of ALWAN’S first two editions in September 2022 and 2023 we come back this year with an exciting programme filled with joy, art and creativity. Families will come into our dream world of the most fun street theatre, the craziest installations, mischievous parade performances and incredibly engaging artistic experiences.

ALWAN 2025: Laughter takes center stage in Home by Cris Clown from Spain, where the domestic life of a newly married couple turns into comedy in a whirlwind of fast-paced clowning… El Grand Finale by Bucraa Theatre from Spain reunites two aging clowns after decades of war in a touching and hilarious attempt to finish the show they once began… Beware of Rats by Cia Campi Qui Pugui from Spain, a playful street invasion inspired by the tale of the Pied Piper where giant rodents and a mysterious flutist transform public space into a game of laughter and surprise… The mystical creatures of Wonder Walks – Bubbles on Circus from Italy enchant with shimmering trails of bubbles that leave both kids and adults wide-eyed… The world-famous neon clown Karcocha from Spain/Chile improvises with humor, whistles, and unexpected tricks in his roaming street art performance… The oversized rabbits and Mademoiselle Carrotte of Archibal Caramantran from France hop and dance their way into the festival’s heart with absurd, marvelous flair… The Palestinian Circus School brings daring circus acts and workshops that empower and inspire through creativity and skill… The precious string puppets of Mahdi Karera from Gaza tell the story of people who love and cherish their homeland… Sarhan Abd Il Baseer returns transformed into a giant clown puppet, a collective tribute animated by children pulling ropes to bring joy and movement to life.
