# Event Details

- **Event Name**: KCP Presents: Cirque Kalabanté
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 15 Feb, 2026 at 07:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Founded by African circus star Yamoussa Bangoura, who has performed worldwide, including with Cirque du Soleil and Cirque Eloize, Cirque Kalabanté is a dazzling spectacle inspired by daily life in Guinea, showcasing the beauty, youth and artistry of African culture. A colorful show beyond its scenery, costumes and staging, it vibrates with energy, strength, agility and joy. The troupe’s acrobats execute gravity-defying moves and human pyramids, accompanied by the contemporary sounds of live Afro-Jazz, percussion, and kora – for an unforgettable journey.

Circus founder Yamoussa first became interested in the Circus Arts as a young man growing up in Conakry, Guinea in the 1990s. He studied the circus performers he saw on European TV and practiced on the beach and dirt around his home. He also studied the Nyamakala tradition of circus, practiced by the Fula people of West Africa. He eventually joined Guinea’s original circus company, Circus Baobab, with whom he toured Africa and Europe.

In the early 2000s, Yamoussa was recruited to Canada by Cirque Eloize, a Montreal-based company. While in Canada, Yamoussa also performed with Cirque du Soleil and Cavalia (cirque with horses). In 2007, Yamoussa realized his dream and opened his own company, Kalabanté Productions in Montreal. He recruited many of his extended family members to join the company, including his twin sisters, brothers, and cousins.
