The Reims Manège and Circus (French: Manège et Cirque de Reims) were built in 1865 and 1867 respectively over designs by architect Narcisse Brunette, in Reims, France.[1] The circus was one of many circuses built in France following "the model that Hittorff perfected in Paris."[2]

Both buildings are monuments historiques of France.[1]
