- To ensure the continued creation of the circus in Barcelona, to become a space where artists can experiment with ideas and contents, and to provide resources for circus creation.
- To encourage creators to perfect and develop their work through continued training.
- To promote shared knowledge and connections between artists. To become a space where different artists from generations, disciplines and backgrounds can meet, a space to share knowledge providing space to trends and aesthetics, especially those coming from research work.
- To become a diffusionp platform for companies and artists and to reinforce their external connections via participation in local, national and international networks with other creative and diffusion centres for circus.
- To reinforce the connection between space and territory, bringing the circus closer to the people and promoting the creation of new audiences.
