ISACS members are invited to join us for this year’s SHARE Open Forum, at theNational Circus Festival of Ireland 2025!
ISACS is entering an exciting new chapter, and at this year’s SHARE event, participants will have the opportunity to directly contribute to our new strategic plan for 2026 – 2030.
As street/circus artists, as ISACS members, as enthusiasts and visionaries; we want you to come and share your thoughts, ideas, hopes, and dreams for the future of ISACS.
To help faciliate this important discussion, we are delighted to announce that we are partnering with WOVE, a talented team of strategists, thinkers, and designers committed to creating a more equitable future.
📢 Make sure to get there early at 10am to see the Arts Council of Ireland launch the new Circus Policy and Implementation Plan!
As part of SHARE 2025, ISACS members will have the exciting opportunity to connect with leading international festival programmers:
- Dré Demet – MAD Festival, Antwerp (Belgium)
- Josa Koelbel – Berlin Circus Festival (Germany)
- Jodie Adams – Underbelly, Edinburgh Fringe Festival (Scotland)
These industry professionals will be attending shows, panels, and the SHARE Open Forum — offering a rare chance to build relationships that could lead to future collaborations and touring opportunities.
We’re also thrilled to introduce this year’s DELVE artists: Tara Brandel, Bobbi Byrne, and Rachel Paul of Croí Glán — a disabled-led company creating inclusive, nonverbal performance experiences. These artists will participate in the SHARE Open Forum and engage with national and international creatives throughout the festival.
Join us, share your vision, and be part of this crucial conversation as we shape the future of ISACS together!
