	Description of the event and CFC solutions
	A FIRST PUBLIC TOUR FOR CIRQUE FANTASTIC! Mexico recently had the chance of welcoming our first-ever public tour. We adapted our corporate show to create a 60-minute extravaganza for 24 artists. We custom-designed this show specifically to suit the location, budget and time constraints in terms of rehearsals. Twenty-four artists and three technicians from Quebec and from CIRCO FANTASTICO performed three shows a day over a period of 25 consecutive days. More than 300,000 people had the chance to discover the talents of these exceptional artists. Mission accomplished: people of all ages were spellbound! CIRQUE FANTASTIC will be in Mexico again very soon for other festivals and special events.
