Carnivale

A village fair full of extraordinary machinery, absurd intermezzos and stunning attractions, all operated and manipulated by fair folk aswell as spectators.

Attractions with bombastic names such as: L'imaginarium du Capitein Gustav II, Les Fabuleuses Aventures de Marquis de Quevilly, Animalium, Les Géants Du Galapagos, The Flea Cabinet and a shooting booth will all take you to an amazing fantasy world and ecological madness.

It will be an explosive collection of objects, installations, curiosities, mechanical “nearly extinct” animals, all combined in one incredible fair.

A huge nod to the past, with a unique interpretation.

An immersive experience...one big show.
