Why ECA?

Circus is Culture
The classical circus is known through out the world as a variety of acts presented in a central ring involving artistic displays, acrobatics, clowns, music, animals, and mind-boggling feats of strength, beauty and daring. The modern European circus can be traced to London around 1770. Today more than 1,000 circuses thrive across Europe. Many are owned or managed by and feature talented descendants of the original great circus families. The European Circus Association (ECA) was established to promote circus arts and culture, thereby protecting this important part of our shared heritage.

ECA offers proposed model regulation for the care, transport and presentation of animals in the circus

ECA Supports the Establishment of Good Regulations The European Circus Association (ECA) strongly supports the establishment of appropriate regulations to ensure the welfare of all animals under human care. Concerning animals in circuses, there is no legal basis for European Community wide legislation. ECA therefore recommends that countries that have not already done so enact circus-specific legislation at the national level.
