The Night Circus follows two young magicians, Celia and Marco, who are bound to a magical competition within a mysterious black-and-white striped circus that appears without warning.

The Night Circus centers on Le Cirque des Rêves, a circus that appears without warning and without prior announcement. It is housed in black-and-white striped tents and is open only at night. Behind the attractions, two young magicians, Celia and Marco, are bound to a competition they were trained for since childhood by their instructors. The circus serves as the stage for this contest of imagination and will. As the game proceeds, the two become romantically involved, and the outcome affects the circus performers and its patrons.
