Since 2003, supported by Arts Council England, CIAO! has presented a series of festivals at South Hill Park Arts Centre in Bracknell, showcasing international and UK performing arts for children and young people.

CIAO! is moving the centre of its activities to Oxford in 2010 with the Ark as a public spectacle outdoor arts installation - the culmination of an ambitious arts and science project for schools. This will be followed by a more conventional CIAO! Festival in Oxford and around the county in 2011.
