“We were absolutely delighted to welcome Happy Circus to Stanground Academy, and we cannot thank them enough for the fantastic show they delivered for our students. The performance was vibrant, engaging, and full of energy – a truly magical experience that had everyone smiling from start to finish.
The team brought a wonderful mix of humour, skill, and professionalism, creating a fun and safe environment where students could relax and enjoy a high-quality live performance. It was heartwarming to see the joy and excitement on the faces of our young people, many of whom were experiencing a circus show for the very first time.
It was a great way to end our academic year on Carnival Day, creating memories that will last long after the summer break.
Thank you, Happy’s Circus, for bringing such a memorable and uplifting event to our school. We hope to welcome you back again in the future!”

Wow what a show. The children still buzzing the next day. Professional, magical and enthralling. Everyone I came into contact with was very curterous and helpful

We enjoyed the circus a lot! It was really incredible to watch the talented performers.
The staff was so professional in setting up and leaving the event. We have had a lot of positive feedback from children and parents alike and it was clear to see on the day, that everyone had a lot of fun. We made over £2000 in profit and cannot wait to have you back again!

I can’t recommend Happy Circus highly enough. We have used them twice for fundraising events at our school, once in 2018 and in 2021. Both times they were amazing! This time particularly, it was so lovely to hear all the kids (and adults) laughing after what has been such a tough time!
All their staff were incredibly helpful, especially Pippa who was fantastic on the day of our event. Please do consider Happy Circus if you are looking for a fun-filled fundraising event.

Hi Rebecca
Thanks for your call earlier.
The Circus was amazing last night and thoroughly enjoyed by all at Hawley Primary. Right from the start the booking process was easy and even though this was your third visit to us, the support calls and information were really helpful. We worked hard, launching the event with a circus skills day months before, and kept on promoting ticket sales so that we were virtually sold out.The team on the day was amazing and unbelievably organised! It all went smoothly and we ended up raising £5500 in profit from ticket sale, raffle and stallsLook forward to seeing you again in a couple of years!

I just wanted to say thank you so much for an amazing event. We had such an amazing time – the team were fantastic and really helpful on the day.
We were unsure what to expect and I can safely say every person I spoke to said the circus show exceeded their expectations.
What an amazing team you have – everyone we have dealt with really wanted our event to be a success which made the whole experience enjoyable.
We worked together as a team to create an event which raised around £4000 profit enabling us to agree to a brand new Trim Trail for the school.
I would also like to personally thank Leeanne for all her hard work on the three year period (thanks Covid) of organising this event – she was such a help and really wanted us to succeed even when I had given up!! Please pass on my thanks to everyone involved!

As it became clear that covid restrictions would most likely not be lifted in time for the school to hold a summer fair, we began to look around for an alternative event. One which would enable the School Association to begin to claw back much needed funds lost during the 18 months of lockdown and, more importantly, bring the school community together to enjoy an experience like no other. Well, I can safely say we found it all in Happy’s Circus.
From the initial booking all the way through to the final curtain call, the enquiry team at the end of my phone calls and email correspondences were fantastic. Having never put on such an event before I was more than a little apprehensive. However, I felt supported every step of the way. To promote ticket sales, we used an online ticket platform which made the whole process far easier to manage, I would recommend this. The circus was mentioned in assemblies and I made a short promotional video with some images of Happy’s Circus which went home to parents as part of the virtual school newsletter. That was all the promotion we needed to sell every single ticket in just 2 weeks.
The day the circus arrived caused much excitement, the children could see the big top out on the school field. With everything set up and in place, the whole school was able to have a short visit to the circus in the afternoon to whet the appetite. The squeals of delight were music to our ears after all that time spent in lockdown seeing children being children with their friends was magic!
We could have had a BBQ or bar to make more money, however, we opted to simply run a tuck shop with some ice creams on the side. Nevertheless, the event still raised well in excess of £3000.00. However, the money raised was not the highlight, the highlight will remain with us (until the next Happy’s Circus event that is). The best bit about Happy’s Circus are the memories left, which will stay with our children for ever. “The day the circus came to our school”. Children old and young, (my teenage daughter became the little girl I remember her to be before hoodies and headphones took over) laughing and oohing in awe. Every single comment from parents since the event has been one of thanks and gratitude. Thank you, Happy’s Circus.
Thank you

Could you please pass on our thanks to pip, Ross and the happy circus crew for providing such a wonderful event at Bromham primary school last Wednesday. We were thoroughly impressed the fact that they arrived and we did not even realize they were there, the set up and pack down was amazing. People are already asking when we are doing it again.
Many thanks

Hi Happy’s Circus
I wanted to thank you all at Happy’s Circus for a fabulous show on Sunday!
The families at MMK School had the most fantastic afternoon celebrating the school’s 60th Anniversary. The children were mesmerised by all of the talented performers and especially loved meeting Bobbo the clown. Miss Pippa was an excellent ringmaster and we thank her especially for making it so special.
The whole experience was incredibly professional and well organised and (apart from the weather!) it all went to plan, exceeding all of our expectations.I thought I’d share some of the lovely feedback we received from teachers and families:
“What an amazing afternoon. It was beyond slick, so well thought out and so much fun!!!!”
“Thanks so much for organising the circus today. It was absolutely fantastic. My family really enjoyed it and so did I.”
“It was lovely to see so many MMK staff and children with their families having such a great time”
Thank you once again for helping us to create a wonderful memory for the children and we’ll definitely be recommending Happy’s Circus to other schools.
Best wishes
