Below are some of the performers who will enchant you throughout the festival.
Acrobats
An array of acrobats will astonish you with their agility, drawing you into your imagination with exotic, animal-like costumes. When the sun sets, their holographic bodysuits will hypnotize your senses.
Fire Performers
Performers and pyrotechnics collide at Paradiso, where you will witness a multitude of fire displays. Fire hoops, fire breathing, fire poi, and fire nun chucks will artfully light up the night, bewildering you at every turn.
Aerialists
Dangling aerialists will defy gravity as they enchant you with their poetic moves. Illuminated by LEDs, they will be a sight reminiscent of the constellations.

A troupe of acrobatics will perform a breathtaking 3-person acrobalance at all the stages throughout the festival. Their beautiful & expansive routine will amaze you.
DalompaDudes
These peculiar fury eyeballs will crowd surf, roll down hills, and contribute to the unusual ambience of Paradiso. Be on the lookout for them roaming the Gorge and blasting the crowd with CO2 guns.
Fire Dragon
An enormous, fourteen foot puppet dragon will roam the festival grounds, exhaling fire and mystifying all in its path.
