Berlin Aerial Arts festival was founded in 2016 by Berlin Verein VUESCH, a co-operative, not-for-profit group that offers training space for professionals, regular classes and open training.

By putting on the Berlin Aerial Arts Festival we hope to bring together the best aerial artists, practitioners, teachers, and enthusiasts from all over the world, to celebrate and develop our art-form together.

The festival comprises of advanced workshops, masterclasses, jamming sessions, shows, open-stage performance, networking events and much more – and brings contemporary circus to the Berlin audience!
