Bangor University has recently unveiled plans for a new £35m Arts and Innovation Centre that will include a theatre, cinema space and an outdoor amphitheatre, plus social facilities such as bars, dining and family friendly park areas.

It is hoped that the Pontio project will establish a world-class centre for innovation in science, technology and the creative industries, and the public performance spaces will become a major focus for Welsh culture.

To celebrate the unveiling of the plans for the centre in Bangor, Welsh contemporary circus performers NoFit State Circus will be giving street theatre performances, including acrobatic routines and juggling acts, on Bangor High Street from 11am until 3pm.
