Not a traditional circus, but a merciless arena
Anyone expecting cheerful clowns and acrobats with safety nets is mistaken. Circus REBL embraces a dark and relentless atmosphere, with acts following each other at a relentless pace. The ring is filled with heavy sets, raw energy and striking visuals, making the crowd feel like an integral part of the show rather than mere spectators.
A heavyweight line-up
The line-up features a wide selection of artists, each bringing their own ‘act’ to the arena. Outsiders is joined by Act of Rage, Neophyte, Mark With a K & MC Chucky, Frank van Etten, The Darkraver, Bass Chaserz, Dr Rude, De Kraaien, G-Town Madness and Chicco & Ginia. According to the organization, the rule is simple: every act has to hit harder than the one before.

“This insane circus waits for no one”
Circus REBL takes place on Saturday, April 11, at Martiniplaza Groningen. Tickets go on sale on Wednesday, February 4 at 7:00 PM. A limited number of tickets is available starting at €32,- excluding service fees. Fans who want to secure access early can pre-register via the official channels of the event.
