About Aquanauts
Aquanauts is a show of extraordinary scale, inspired by the most encompassing feeling of them all: love. With at least 30 professionals and amateur performers, a 50-metre-tall crane and a wild body of water, we're erupting out of the safe confines of the circus tent and making a splash in an enormous site-specific event.
Exploring the elements of water, fire and air, the show explores how fellowship, togetherness and equality can help us overcome anything. The result is a poetic and magnificent experience filled with aerial and water acrobatics and astonishing artistic swimming formations. Together, we are an incredible force for good.
Aquanauts was performed at the Forsgrenska Pool in Stockholm in 2016, during the H20 festival in Jönköping, at the Stockholm Cultural Festival in 2018 and was revived at Letní Letná in Prague in 2023.
