Phare Circus is more than a conventional acrobatic circus. The artists create and perform stories based on their own life experiences. Drawing from recent history, folklore and modern society, the artists blend drama, dance, live music and circus arts to share a part of their lives with audiences.
The performers come from unimaginably difficult social and economic background. They discover and develop their skills at Phare Ponleu Selpak non-profit school. They are able to earn a good living and transform their lives at Phare Circus, breaking the cycle of poverty.
By attending a Phare Circus show, you enjoy Siem Reap's best live entertainment, financially support the school and provide opportunities for Cambodian artists.

I would visit again in a heartbeat. They were great entertainers and every one was multi talented. The story was a great glimpse of “modern Cambodia” Knowing that I was making a difference made it the more meaningful. A must do!
Amazing performance, great show for all ages
Amazing performance. Highly recommended
Great show for adults and kids
We visited the circus in Siem Reap and it was an incredible and unforgettable experience — absolutely deserving of 5 stars. The artists are exceptionally talented and perform at an impressively high level. The show balances humor and intense focus perfectly — one moment you laugh out loud, the next you sit in awe of their concentration and skills. What truly sets this performance apart is its strong thematic storytelling. Everything, from the acrobatics to the music, is thoughtfully connected to the show’s central theme. The production even processes and reflects elements of Cambodian history, making it feel meaningful and deep without losing its lighthearted charm. It’s more than just a circus — it almost feels like an artistic theater play or an acrobatical stage performance, blending performance art, drama, and music into one cohesive piece. The live music, the choreography, and the story flow together beautifully, creating something far beyond a typical circus act. If you’re in Siem Reap and want to experience culture through art in the most creative way, this is a must-see. We were amazed, entertained, and emotionally moved — all in one evening. A truly unique performance. Highly recommended!
Very good. I will recommend everone to see the show. It was worth it. Pick up was on time both fetching at hotel and after the show. Go early and have supper and a drink beforehand.
