Such a public and mediatic acknowledgement was intended as a testimony to the genre\u2019s high level of artistic quality within the different disciplines of contemporary practice. The Zirk\u00f2lika awards have achieved significant media coverage. <\/p>\n<p>They are organised by the association Zirk\u00f2lika; a project dedicated to the dissemination and communication of Circus Arts. Since 2004 Zirk\u00f2lika publishes the only magazine specialising in circus, as well as maintaining a comprehensive portal online that includes a calendar of festivals, a listing of events and shows, a circus library, as well as news, reports and general information about the genre. <\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/pepaplana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Pepa-Plana-Premi-ARC-1.jpg&#8221; title_text=&#8221;Pepa-Plana-Premi-ARC&#8221; force_fullwidth=&#8221;on&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;50px||||false|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font=&#8221;&#8211;et_global_body_font||||||||&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;17px&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;1.8em&#8221; header_2_font_size=&#8221;30px&#8221; header_3_font=&#8221;&#8211;et_global_body_font||||||||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3>ARC Award 2004 in the Circus category for the show \u201cGiulietta\u201d.<\/h3>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font=&#8221;&#8211;et_global_body_font||||||||&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;17px&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;1.8em&#8221; header_2_font_size=&#8221;30px&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>The ARC AWARDS are widely regarded as the benchmark awards for live music and spectacle in Catalonia. <\/p>\n<p>ARC (Association of Professional Agents, Promoters and Managers of Catalonia) is a non-profit organisation that has its origins in 1976.
