“My granddaughter (aged 9) and I encountered Happy’s Circus at Mead Open Farm. What an experience! We saw the show not once, but twice. Excellent performances by all the cast. We were enthralled. My heart was in my mouth a few times with the pole and aerial acts. Plus would the guy catch the Diablos from such great heights. Of course he did!! A big THANK YOU to everyone involved”

Happy’s Circus is an extremely professional and wonderful team. They knew what they were doing and got on with it. They’re highly skilled team had that big top tent up in a matter of hours and the performance was just spectacular! Our community and school loved the show and the school children loved watching the tent go up also!

I would highly recommend Happy’s Circus for a PTA/school event, it was a wonderful experience and one that has created memories for not just our children but our adults as well. Happy’s Circus administration team were brilliant also, I had monthly updates/countdowns and regular communication.

Shaun, you should be extremely proud of yourself and your team for the joy and happiness you have brought to the children. Well done and I look forward to seeing you all again soon!

I am writing on behalf of the Friends of Anlaby Primary who invited Happy’s Circus to visit our school on the 25th of June.

The circus team were incredible, from start to finish. From initial discussion right up to them arriving we had all the information we needed. They talked us through everything, sent over risk assessments and gave us ideas for pricing and marketing too.

When the team arrived they were friendly and professional, they were set up on the school site and to help the children get excited they invited each of the classes in to have a look around the tent and meet the crew. The kids had an amazing time and feedback from the headmaster was very positive.
For the event, we had two smaller one hour events rather than their usual 2hr event to make up for the restricted numbers.

The tent set up was great. The circus team seated everyone safely and efficiently. Everyone was super friendly and professional. The shows were unreal. Both different and both had each crowd totally amazed, engaged and howling with laughter! Thoroughly entertaining.

We’ve had so much feedback from parents and children to say it’s the best night they’ve had in a very very long time. Parents loved it just as much as the kids.

Once inside the tent it truly was like being somewhere else with the lights and sound effects.

Honestly it couldn’t have gone better. When the team left, they did so conscientiously, with no rubbish or mess left behind. They also spent some time supporting our local businesses too!

We can’t wait to get the team back, neither can the families who saw them.

Thank you so much Happy’s Circus for giving our community a truly unforgettable experience.

Kind Regards

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

Our PTA has booked Happy’s Circus three times and we’ve always been delighted with their service. The booking process was very straightforward: the office staff were always ready to answer our questions and help us to tailor the event to our individual needs. Communication from Happy’s was excellent, with regular emails from the fundraising team. They provide us with a brilliant information service with everything you need to know to put on the event, including ideas for fundraising, marketing, site layout, brochures, and so much more.

The focus is definitely on helping schools make their event a fundraising success.

On the day, the circus arrived and set up quickly and efficiently, leaving the members of the PTA to concentrate on food and fundraising stalls.

The circus staff were professional and courteous throughout, and got on with the set-up quickly and efficiently.

The show itself is always incredibly impressive – The Happy’s Circus team are true professionals, and everyone was amazed by the expertise of the performers. The show is genuinely entertaining for both children and adults.

We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Happy’s Circus to other schools.

I would just like to say a big thank you to you and your team for putting on such a genuinely happy and spectacular event at our school last week.

There was a buzz in the air all day with the children being so excited to see a Big Top appear on the field in the morning and being allowed to look inside was a real treat.

We have a fantastic PTA team at St. Andrew’s and we are very grateful to them for organising the event together with you and your team.

Observing all COVID restrictions worked really well and it was great to have your colleagues on hand to make sure that people followed procedures correctly.

The show was magnificent and perfectly pitched to the audience of mixed age groups and there was great excitement the next day in school with children talking about their favourite acts and spectacles.

Please thank your team on our behalf, it was a genuine delight to see so many happy faces walking home at the end of the evening.

With best wishes

Dear Shaun and Circus Team

I just wanted to say a HUGE thank you for all the fun and laughter you offered my Westfield children, families and the local Berkhamsted community this weekend. This was the first fundraising event we have had since the pandemic – what a wonderful way to begin to ‘ live through Covid ‘ by being entertained by you all.

It was so refreshing to see the children laughing , smiling and having a good time and this being extend to their parents, grandparents , aunts , uncles, and friends.

I look forward to arranging for you all to return in the future.

Thank you all

Suzanne

(Head) and the Westfield WISPA team

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!

“Happy Circus is an amazing experience for any school! The organisation is excellent and we were able to put on an amazing event for the family, which was hassle free and superb quality. The Happy Circus team are wonderful and they go above and beyond to ensure the school is kept well informed and the event runs efficiently. From the moment they arrive the Circus coming to school created a buzz, and the children loved seeing the big top go up! The show itself is of high quality and the acts perform amazing stunts which defy belief. The chemistry between Happy and Pip was brilliant and all of the family laughed a lot. If you are worried about having the circus come to your school, then don’t be, it’s hassle free, amazing entertainment and the added bonus is you raise loads of money for the school! ”

Kind regards

Thank you very much for the most wonderful experience. We had a super day and that was down to the professionalism of all your staff both on site and in the offices. All the organising on your part was fantastic and for us as a Parents’ Association we had a very relaxed event.
It was great to see the enjoyment in all the children, adults and grandparents faces whilst enjoying the event with my own family.

Thanks again. Great to work with you.
