Humans, inherently curious yet cautious of the unknown, embody a paradox: they conform to societal norms yet inherently yearn to challenge them, akin to a 'circus gene' leading us towards the undiscovered.



On the lively street, a silent spot entices the 'ordinary' seeking the extraordinary. “UPSILON,” a circus for the audacious, swaps curiosity for entrance in a modest yet captivating exchange.



Inside, a serene pink arch, accented with dark green and gold, subverts expectations of circus flamboyance, offering intimacy. For quartets, the Golden Deer Carriage invites a collective journey of comprehension.



A bar, mirroring a circus canopy, stands at the venue's core, where bartenders conjure magic under the warm glow of lights. Those in the General Admission area are urged to revel, yet remain grounded amid the enthralling ambiance.



The stage, a spectacle of vintage mirrors, conjures a blend of illusion and reality, ensuring performances that captivate whether fanciful or tangible.



In this compact arena, circuses come alive, with diverse textures adorning walls and a blend of velvety and leather furnishings under the soft luminescence of ring lights, compelling visitors to dive into a whimsical self-discovery. As the show concludes, the gentle illumination ensures you emerge as the circus's brightest spectacle.
