We made an enquiry regarding Happy’s Circus availability on 8th June and just over 10 weeks later the Circus arrived for our council-run Family Fun Day.

The pre-event support calls were really excellent and we cannot fault anything in terms of the support, although we did have a last- minute mix-up on the date, but it was solved literally overnight. We were very impressed with the professional build and de-rigging process. It was very smooth.

The only negative feedback was that we needed more help with seating people before the performance began and encouraging people to go back to their original seats after the interval. (You have said that you will take this on board and will find out what happened as normally this doesn’t happen).

We sold 598 tickets, achieving a total income of £6480. After the expenses of hiring the circus, toilets, bins, and first aid, we made a good total profit of £2458.51 from just 10 weeks of planning including the booking process.The best overall result was the really positive online feedback from families who thoroughly enjoyed their Brackley Town Council Family Fun Day.

We will definitely invite Happy’s Circus back in the future and look forward to the next brand-new show!

“Emma provided so much support and check-ins prior to the event. The pre-event call a few days before was particularly useful as we were able to run through key logistics of the day. Shaun and the circus team were also great – communication was really clear, and we enjoyed working with them. It also seemed that many members of the circus team enjoyed joining in the Summer Solstice Party too! It created such a lovely vibe and atmosphere.

Our profit for the Friends of Wray Common, including the Summer Solstice Party, was just shy of £4000! This is an excellent amount. We sold circus tickets in family bundles and individual sales. The Family Bundles proved particularly popular, as did the early bird sale.

All the performances were excellent. Good choice of music to go with them, which appealed to the children – keeping it contemporary is important in that regard! The ring mistress and Steve the Clown were also great, but probably appealed to the younger members of the audience. The audience participation with the Bluetooth speakers, the singing, and the Super Soakers was fun!

We look forward to having Happy’s Circus return to Wray Common School“

“Happy’s Circus visited our school for the second time on Wednesday, after first visiting us three years ago and WOW, what an unforgettable event! The feedback from parents has been absolutely incredible, and everyone is still buzzing with excitement!

From the moment the Big Top started going up, there was such a magical atmosphere around school. Watching the set-up and pack-up was amazing in itself, and the entire Happy’s Circus team were fantastic throughout. Nothing was too much trouble, every question was answered, and they made the whole experience feel so special from start to finish.

A huge special mention has to go to Rebecca, who has been absolutely brilliant from the moment we booked. I genuinely feel like I know her personally after all our conversations! She was supportive, responsive, helpful and reassuring every step of the way. The promotional materials, communication and support provided made organising such a huge event feel so much easier.

Not only did the children and families have the most amazing evening, but as a PTFA, we are absolutely thrilled to have raised over £4,000 in profit for our school community!

The children are already asking when Happy’s Circus can come back again… and honestly, so are we!

Thank you so much, Happy’s Circus, for bringing so much joy, laughter and magic to our school community”

Happy’s Circus were an absolute pleasure to deal with from start to finish.

Behind the scenes questions and queries were dealt with immediately and the crew on the day were friendly, approachable and efficient. They put on an amazing show enjoyed by our whole community from 0-90 years!

A HUGE thank you to the Happy’s Circus team!

Thanks

Thank you so much to everyone involved on Saturday – the circus was, as ever, a roaring success. I was actually sorting stuff out during the show itself, so I didn’t manage more than a quick peep inside the tent, but it was enough for me that my husband (not normally known for his outbursts of enthusiasm) came out saying how genuinely impressed he was with the standard of the acts (high praise indeed!), and that my kids were still talking about it at breakfast this morning!

We also thought the event was very successful too. We have sent out a survey to those who attended to obtain feedback for future events.

We were very impressed with Happy’s Circus, the show was fantastic, and the kids loved it. The planning and organisation were thorough, and the team were fantastic at communication and support with how we can market the event.

I just wanted to put in writing how brilliant the circus was and how much it was enjoyed by the whole audience. We managed to sell all 600 tickets and although the purpose of the circus was not specifically as a fundraiser but as a birthday celebration for the school. We managed to raise around £2,500 overall.

Thank you so much for all your help.

Just a quick note to say thank you for a wonderful event last Monday. Everything was perfect – your guys were extremely helpful, the show was incredible and lots of fun was had despite the torrential rain.

I appreciate their no fuss attitude and attention to detail.

I’m already looking for an excuse to have you back!

“I just wanted to write to say a really BIG thank you for making our event on Saturday such a success! Rebecca and the office team did an excellent job of holding my hand through the build-up, calling each month and providing me with top tips and next steps. This was really helpful!

On the day, Shaun, Pippa and their amazing team were incredible. They were so calm and again gave great advice to ensure that the event ran smoothly and everyone enjoyed themselves. The sun shone and families from over Hitchin joined us to mark our 50^th anniversary.

The Big Top was packed with smiling faces and we were so pleased with the comments we received from families as they left.

Thank you for all of your support and guidance and for putting Mary Exton on the map for a day!

“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!”
