Circus meets K-pop in Velez-Malaga: Adrenalina 2.0 brings international performers to the Axarquia

Velez-Malaga is hosting a spectacular circus production combining death-defying stunts, music and K-pop for families across the Axarquia.

Berlin Zirkus has put up its big top at the Recinto Ferial in Velez for Adrenalina 2.0, which runs all the way until Sunday, November 22. Organisers describe it as an international production, with Velez-Malaga its only stop in the Axarquia.

The town regularly attracts visitors with its family entertainment programme, including events such as its cultural celebrations and activities in Velez-Malaga.

Death wheel, motorbikes and K-pop

Audiences can expect traditional circus acts and jaw-dropping modern stage effects. The programme includes heady performances on the death wheel, a steel pendulum measuring more than 12 metres, contortionists and motorbike-stunt acts, as well as magic and comedy.

A major feature is a tribute to K-pop, the South Korean music phenomenon with an international following. Choreographed routines, music and visual effects bring the pop-inspired segment into the circus setting, creating a show for children and adults.

Berlin Zirkus says the production has visited major cities across Andalucia, attracting strong audiences. The company has German roots and has toured Spain for more than 35 years, presenting new productions while keeping traditional circus entertainment at their heart.

Show times and tickets

Performances take place on Thursdays and Fridays at 6pm, Saturdays at 5pm and 7.30pm, and Sundays at noon and 6pm.

Advance tickets are available through the official Berlin Zirkus website, with discounts advertised for online bookings. Alternatively, visitors can buy Adrenalina 2.0 tickets in Velez-Malaga.

The box office opens one hour before each performance. Children’s tickets include face painting, with families invited to arrive an hour before the show to enjoy the activity.

Free parking is available at the Recinto Ferial, making the production an accessible family outing for residents and visitors looking for more events and activities across the Axarquia.
