For the event, we had two smaller one hour events rather than their usual 2hr event to make up for the restricted numbers.

Experience the wonder. Share the laughter. Join the family under the Big Top.
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!
“Hello Emma
I just wanted to drop you a note with regards to our Circus event on 21st July.
The support we had from initial booking to event day was fabulous! As we had never had the Circus or an event on this scale at our school, it was so good to know we could ask any questions and call on you when needed. The information packs you sent us were also really useful. On the day, Shaun and his team were great, we really felt like we were in safe hands and as a result, our event was a huge success.
We have raised approx. £3k from our event which will go a long way in refurbishing our library.
We are keen to book again for 2028!
Thank you, Clare”
From the very first telephone call I felt that booking Happys Circus was going to be great. The efficiency with all the paperwork that was sent, the step-by-step approach allowed us to grow in confidence in putting on an event of this size outside which we had never done before. We received telephone calls a week before and then the day before and, on the day, letting us know what was going to happen, and it all went to plan exactly. The circus team worked extremely hard to help us run in a fun-loving safe way and our families absolutely loved it. The performers did everything possible to embrace everyone. I could have listed lots of comments from the families and these are just a few (below). When the circus left you would not have known they had been here after their stay overnight. We would thoroughly recommend them.
5 year old – I liked the circus especially when the man fell over!

Dear Happy Circus Team,
Happy Circus – Russell Lower School
Following an absolutely superb show on Wednesday, please find below a testimonial
Thank you so much to the staff of Happy Circus who visited us for the first time this year! From the initial correspondence to seeing them off site the day after our show the Happy Circus team were an absolute pleasure to work with.
The processes that Happy’s have in place to ensure your event runs smoothly is absolutely fantastic and removes any stresses of the organiser. With the supporting information and details provided in the support pack we were able to sell out our first performance. The literature issued is clear and provides excellent guidelines for planning a successful event.
The show itself was enjoyed by all who attended, the children were absolutely buzzing with excitement after watching the Big top being set up in the day to being able to sit in the show and watch the wonderful performances by all involved. The noise from the children certainly raised the roof and the parents all commented to say how good the performance was and how nice it was to have something different at the school.
The show was such a success for us that we have planned a returning visit for a two day event to our school in 2018.
It has been a pleasure working with the Happy’s team and we cannot wait to have you back in the future.
A truly fantastic company from simple booking, slick set up and a brilliant show with unique acts. An easy money maker for schools PTA. Thank you Happy’s circus.
Many thanks for joining us at Henry Hinde on the 23rd of June.
We thoroughly enjoyed the whole event, especially once the sales peaked in the last week. We would love to thank the whole amazing Happy’s Circus team.
Professional, organised, helpful, enthusiastic, supportive, and above all Happy right from the early planning stages through to the performance on the day and even early hours of Saturday morning, leaving a clean site and with a cheerful wave, off to their next venue.
What can we say, we really loved having you and would not hesitate in recommending you to other schools.
Who knows we may see you again at Henry Hinde in the future.
I just wanted to email to pass on our thanks and to say how much of a success our event was. From the minute we booked Happy Circus we were thrilled with the level of service we received in support to get our event off the ground and also along the way.
On the day we were given clear instructions on when arrival would be and throughout the day the information we were provided with about set up and what we needed to do was fantastic.
The event itself was an even bigger success and had a real community feel to it. As well as raising £3,000 for the school, staff and families had a wonderful evening and everyone commented on how well organised it was and it being such a great event.
We have already booked again for 2024 and cannot wait.
Many Thanks 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!”
