Authentic French Circus Arrives at Dulles Town Center

Cirque De Paris transforms the grounds at Dulles Town Center into a European-style circus venue this May, presenting an all-new production under a traditional big top tent. Directed by Anouchka Bouglione, this 2026 tour marks the North American premiere of acts never before seen in the United States, combining precision athleticism with old-world circus artistry.

The production seats 380 guests per show in a climate-ventilated tent with free parking at Dulles Town Center. Sterling/Dulles audiences will experience juggling troupes from Eastern Europe, aerial silk performances, BMX stunt riding, and laser light spectacles—all performed without safety nets in the intimate single-ring format that defines traditional French circus.

What Makes This Production Unique

Every performer in Cirque De Paris learned their craft through family tradition rather than formal circus schools. The Supka Family Juggling Troupe makes their North American debut with two distinct acts that showcase multi-generational training methods passed down through decades. Anastasiia Maksymchuk premieres her aerial hammock silk routine in the USA, performing suspended choreography that requires years of specialized conditioning.

Kostiantyn Tsymbal brings his BMX trial riding act featuring record-breaking front wheel hops—technical maneuvers that push the limits of bicycle physics. Duo Nava (Jacqueline Itzel Morales and Brandon Carrisosa Nava) premiere a brand-new straps act created specifically for this tour, demonstrating synchronized strength work high above the ring.

The Dulles Town Center Experience

The big top setup at 21100 Dulles Town Cir places the circus within walking distance of retail shops and dining options throughout the Dulles Town Center complex. Families attending evening performances can plan dinner before the show at nearby restaurants along the Town Center loop. The venue’s location just off the Dulles Toll Road (Route 267) provides direct highway access for audiences traveling from Reston, Ashburn, Leesburg, and throughout Loudoun County.

Free parking eliminates the typical urban circus venue hassles. The tent features ventilation systems and fans to maintain comfort during May performances, with seating configurations that ensure clear sightlines from every position in the 380-seat layout.

Acts and Performers

Anouchka Bouglione serves as producer, director, and performer, presenting her signature hula hoop manipulation act. Reinaldo Monteiro directs technical operations while performing in the laser light show alongside Noah Bouglione Monteiro. Ivo Manfredo presents his rola bola balancing act on stacked cylinders and boards—a classic circus skill that demands absolute body control.

The comedy comes from two distinct sources: Chico Rico brings multicultural clowning traditions from the United Kingdom, while Pedro ‘Rampin’ Jr. introduces a new French-inspired character that bridges language barriers through physical humor and audience interaction.

Performance Format

Shows run approximately 90 minutes without intermission. The single-ring format keeps all action centered, eliminating the split attention of multi-ring productions. There is no live music or singing—the production uses recorded soundtracks synchronized to each act’s timing. Performers work without nets or extensive safety rigging, maintaining the risk element inherent to traditional circus arts.

Planning Your Visit

Sterling/Dulles sits at the crossroads of Northern Virginia’s technology corridor, with the big top positioned for easy access from Fairfax County, Loudoun County, and communities along the Route 7 and Route 28 corridors. The Dulles Town Center location provides a contained venue environment with amenities nearby—particularly useful for families with young children who may need breaks before or after the performance.

May weather in Sterling typically ranges from mild to warm, making the ventilated tent comfortable for evening shows. Arrive 20-30 minutes before showtime to allow for parking and seating. The tent operates rain or shine, with the enclosed structure providing weather protection while maintaining the outdoor circus atmosphere.
