Zhang Fan won his first Gold award at the Acrobatic Festival of Wuhan, in China, in 2000, and another Gold award at the International Circus Festival of Budapest, Hungary, in 2001.
He then improved on his already exceptional act, winning him a Gold Medal at Paris's Festival Mondial du Cirque de Demain in 2003.
From then on, his international career as one of the world's greatest acrobat on the slack wire was launched.
In 2004, he worked with Circus Knie in Switzerland and, after a tour in Israel with the China Acrobatic Troupe, he spent two years in North America, where he performed at Cirque du Soleil's Ovo.
In 2012, he was featured in the Big Apple Circus production of 'Legendarium' in the United States. He has also appeared on television shows in Europe, and in China for CCTV's Chinese New Year's Eve Special.
