Wild Horizon
Circus & Play Festival

You were born to play.

Wild Horizon is a free circus and play festival for young people and families, taking over Philadelphia's Cherry Street Pier with two full days of breathtaking performance, hands-on play, and imagination. Celebrated local companies, far-flung dreamers, and international touring artists fill the pier from morning to dusk — all free, all day.

The festival is a glimpse of what can happen when we play and perform in public space. An urban ruin is reimagined as a place for creativity: a weekend of wonderful journeys and fun ideas fit for young ones, families, and adventurers of all ages.
