Experience the wonder. Share the laughter. Join the family under the Big Top.
I want to say a huge thank you on behalf of myself, PTA and the school for the amazing evening everyone had last Friday.
The whole evening was perfect, the atmosphere was fantastic and the circus was the source of conversation the following morning in the local hairdressers (so I’m told!) From the moment I nervously booked you way back whenever, to seeing the team off site on the Saturday morning, the whole process has been wonderful. You have all been so helpful, friendly, and given great advice, especially when the circus team arrived at the school, in giving us ideas for setting out our stalls.
For a fairly small school we did really well with selling more than 80% of our tickets to family members within school. Although we still have final figures to sort out we look to have made around the £3000 mark.
We would love to book you again!!
“We had an absolutely fantastic experience working with Happy’s Circus. From start to finish, the team were professional, friendly and incredibly well-organised. The pre-event communication was excellent, with helpful emails and calls that made the planning process smooth and stress-free.
On the day itself, Shaun and the team were brilliant. They arrived and departed exactly as scheduled, and the set-up and dismantling of the Big Top was carried out with military-style precision — it was genuinely impressive to watch! Despite their busy schedule, Shaun kindly took the time to hold some impromptu Q&A sessions with our children, which created so much extra excitement around the event and meant a great deal to us as a school.
The show itself was fantastic — all the performers were excellent, and it was a real treat to see such a talented, high-energy cast entertain families of all ages. The children especially loved getting sprayed with water at the end — a brilliant moment that had everyone laughing! It was a true family event and created memories we’ll be talking about for a long time.
Thanks to the evening’s success, we were able to raise over £2,500 profit for our school — especially pleasing given our short selling window and limited stalls (just food, drinks and a raffle).
We’d definitely look to welcome Happy’s Circus back again in the future and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to other schools and organisations looking for a fun, professional and memorable event.
A huge thank you to Shaun, Pippa, Rebecca and the whole team for making it such a wonderful experience!”
Selling early bird tickets removes all of our worries and risk of cost and we find the event really profitable relative to the amount of work it involves for our small Committee. It is also a wonderful community and family event.
We can’t recommend Happy’s Circus highly enough and are already looking forward to our next circus visit.
We were extremely impressed by the set up And the quality of the show itself. Incredibly efficient and well organised.
Outstanding Experience with Happy’s Circus!
As the Chair of the Hollyfast PTFA, I wanted to share our fantastic experience with Happy’s Circus. As a PTFA, we had the ambitious idea of bringing a circus to our school, despite never having organised anything on this scale before.
From our very first enquiry, the support we received was exceptional. Emma guided us through every stage of the planning process, providing regular communication, helpful advice, and great ideas to help us maximise fundraising opportunities. We always felt fully supported and nothing was ever too much trouble.
On arrival, the entire team were professional, friendly, and incredibly accommodating. We had some logistical challenges with the site, involving two playgrounds and a field, but the team handled everything brilliantly. Sean, the show manager, was particularly helpful, professional, and a pleasure to work with.
Watching the Big Top go up was amazing, and the whole team worked efficiently and safely. Throughout the event, it genuinely felt like we were one team working together to make the evening a success.
We deliberately kept our ticket prices affordable to ensure the event was accessible to all families, and alongside our refreshments and tuck shop, we were delighted to raise just under £3,500 for our school. These funds will go directly back into enriching the experiences and opportunities available to our pupils and family’s
The performance itself was absolutely fantastic. Every act was entertaining, professional, and thoroughly enjoyed by children and adults alike. The whole show was extremely well organised and delivered to a very high standard.
Following our post-event meeting, we are already discussing bringing Happy’s Circus back to our school, possibly for two nights next time.
A huge thank you to everyone at Happy’s Circus. We absolutely loved working with you and would highly recommend you to any school or organisation looking for a memorable fundraising event.
“The absolute biggest thanks to you and your team Rebecca!
What a phenomenal day was had by all. Genuinely never had a better response from an event we have put on at school! Absolutely fantastic.
We had our circus on a beautiful day in May, the sun shone and the children had a wonderful time! It is very age appropriate, funny, daring and thrilling mixed into one show.
We are a small primary school with 210 pupils but sold out at the circus, raising £4.5k for our school funds, which is a record breaking event.
