No 2026. gada 15. līdz 17. aprīlim Rīgas cirks rīko 3. Rīgas Starptautisko cirka izglītības konferenci profesionālās cirka izglītības tīkla FEDEC Spring Talks ietvaros.

Konference ir starptautisks cirka izglītības notikums, kas ik četrus gadus norisinās Rīgā, pulcējot Baltijas un Eiropas skatuves mākslu profesionāļus: formālās un neformālās izglītības īstenotājus, māksliniekus, producentus un kultūrizglītības politikas veidotājus. 2026. gada konferences tēma ir “Saknes un trajektorijas – virzieni cirka izglītībā”, pievēršoties laikmetīgās cirka mākslas izglītības attīstības ceļiem un analizējot spriegumu un mijiedarbību starp nostabilizētām izglītības struktūrām un alternatīviem, hibrīdiem profesionālās attīstības modeļiem.

Konferencē būs trīs paralēlas programmas: 
FEDEC biedru programma 15.–16. aprīlī
bērnu programma 15.–16. aprīlī
atvērtā programma visiem interesentiem 17. aprīlī

Konference notiks Rīgas cirkā (Merķeļa iela 4).
