DIVE INTERNATIONAL TOURING TOOKLIT: FRANCE

Resources
Written By Axel Satgé

We’re proud to share the DIVE International Touring Toolkit: France.

Following the release of the UK edition earlier this year, France is the second country explored in this growing series of practical guides for international touring.

Commissioned by Circostrada and co-authored by Déborah Boëno and Axel Satgé, DIVE is designed to support contemporary circus and outdoor arts artists and companies looking to take their work abroad.

Each guide focuses on a specific country, offering hands-on advice and strategic insight on logistics, funding, sustainability, accessibility, and intercultural dialogue — all with the aim of fostering more inclusive, effective, and environmentally responsible touring practices.
