NICA: The Joys of Circus

NICA Open House Melbourne is back this year, giving curious minds and architecture lovers the chance to explore the campus’s entire purpose-built facility. Across two days, the building will be open for guided access to its bespoke spaces.
⁠
Guests will have a limited group tour of the bespoke facilities, guided by NICA’s circus trainers, who understand its functionality and glory better than anyone. Learn about the building’s history and architecture, how the facility is utilised daily, and how building design and world-class circus arts go hand-in-hand. ⁠
⁠
Following the tour, visitors can test out the facilities in a guided circus workshop. ⁠
There will be two workshops to choose from for our adult participants – Tumbling and Trampoline or an Assorted Aerials workshop, using the world-class equipment to get a taste of the real experience. ⁠For kids, there will be a Family Acrobatics workshop, in which children will learn pyramids and partner balances with their guardians. ⁠
