Ciclop Visual Theatre Festival in Sineu

Welcome to Sineu, a town that breathes history and, for three days every September, becomes the beating heart of Mallorca’s contemporary art scene. The Ciclop Visual Theatre Festival is more than just a series of performances; it is a fundamental part of the town's cultural code. If you are looking for an experience that challenges your perceptions and invites you to see the world through a different lens, you cannot afford to miss this.

Organized by the C.IN.E (Center for Research and Scenic Arts), the festival is celebrating a landmark year. This means the program is more vibrant and powerful than ever, showcasing top-tier talent from the Balearic Islands and Catalonia. Imagine walking through the ancient, winding streets of Sineu and suddenly finding yourself in the middle of a high-energy circus act or a moving contemporary dance piece. The beauty of Ciclop is that it turns the entire old town into an epicenter of art, where the traditional boundaries between the stage and the spectator completely vanish.

The variety on offer is truly impressive. You can expect bold experiments in visual theater, innovative choreography, and the "new circus" genre, which blends technical skill with deep storytelling. There are also numerous street performances designed to surprise you as you explore the town. On September 19th, the festival hosts Ciclop Pro at the C.IN.E venue, focusing on the professional side of the performing arts. But the real magic for the public happens on September 20th and 21st, when the streets of Sineu are filled with shows and artistic interventions.

Whether you are a dedicated follower of the arts or simply looking for a unique way to spend a weekend in Mallorca, Ciclop offers an atmosphere like no other. It is a chance to see Sineu transformed and to support local and regional creators. Make sure to wear comfortable shoes, bring your curiosity, and prepare to be amazed by the creativity on display. We recommend arriving early to find parking and checking the latest schedule at the C.IN.E center so you don't miss any of the headline acts. See you in Sineu!
