The Circus playground is a facility, a playground that offers the practice of circus disciplines in an open and accessible place 24\/7. It is a new type of facility that provides access to circus disciplines for children, young people, older people, and people with special needs. Circus disciplines such as balance, tightrope walking, aerial acrobatics, juggling, etc. greatly stimulate physical and cognitive skills and develop the creative potential of practitioners. Following the basic principles and methodology of the social circus, we are fully convinced of the enormous potential to create and develop this new type of facility with free access in the central park areas of Sofia. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With the kind participation and assistance of architect Yulia Velichkova. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With the financial support of Sofia Municipality, Sofia Municipality Calendar 2025, section &#8220;Significant Events&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;galleryId&quot;:&quot;6af8386a727bb&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/gallery\" class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6af8386a73f38&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6af8386a73f38\" class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-lightbox-container\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-id=\"1386\" src=\"https:\/\/cirkolution.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/cirkolution_2024-day_1_-67-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1386\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cirkolution.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/cirkolution_2024-day_1_-67-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cirkolution.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/cirkolution_2024-day_1_-67-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cirkolution.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/cirkolution_2024-day_1_-67-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cirkolution.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/cirkolution_2024-day_1_-67-1-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cirkolution.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/cirkolution_2024-day_1_-67-1-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--aria-label=\"state.thisImage.triggerButtonAriaLabel\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.thisImage.buttonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.thisImage.buttonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6af8386a74b27&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6af8386a74b27\" class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-lightbox-container\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-id=\"1392\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cirkolution.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/img_0176-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1392 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/cirkolution.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/img_0176-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cirkolution.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/img_0176-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cirkolution.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/img_0176-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cirkolution.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/img_0176-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cirkolution.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/img_0176-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px;
