ESPACE PÉRIPHÉRIQUE
Go there and contact
For decades, this space has been dedicated to circus arts. Although, from 1974 to 2002, the famous Fratellini Academy occupied the space (before going to Saint-Denis), it left behind its famous marquee. Illico, La Villette and the City of Paris took over, re-organising the place with one goal: it will be a place for resident artists in the disciplines of street art, track, puppetry and contemporary circus. Beneath the ring road - hence its name - the place is surrounded by roads, railways and canals: easy to access, therefore, but totally unexpected for the one who comes for the first time! And yet, the Espace Périphérique deserves to be known, because it is a very active and lively place. Like for example the representations offered to an ever-increasing audience and the opening of its installations during the European Heritage Open Days.
