We consider E-polarized bound states in the radiation continuum (BICs) in circular periodical arrays of N infinitely long dielectric rods. We find that each true BICwhich occurs in an infinite linear array has its counterpart in the circular array as a near-BIC with extremely large quality factor. We argue analytically as well as numerically that the quality factor of the symmetry-protected near-BICs diverges as e(lambda N), where lambda is a material parameter dependent on the radius and the refraction index of the rods. By tuning of the radius of rods, we also find numerically non-symmetry-protected near-BICs. These near-BICs are localized with exponential accuracy outside the circular array, but fill the whole inner space of the array carrying orbital angular momentum.
