We prove that the space of circle packings consistent with a given triangulation on a surface of genus at least two is projectively rigid, so that a packing on a complex projective surface is not deformable within that complex projective structure. More broadly, we show that the space of circle packings is a (smooth) submanifold within the space of complex projective structures on that surface.
