Audience Feedback
We would certainly recommend Happy’s Circus for any school considering an exciting and enjoyable event for the whole school community. The performers were of a high quality and the show was perfectly matched to cater to both infant and junior aged children. The company stayed overnight on the school site in their own facilities and were perfect guests! Not only was this an brilliant fundraising event for the PTA to run, the circus brought some much needed fun, laughter and excitement to children and parents alike. Highly recommended!

We have been blown away by the professionalism and dedication of the Happy’s Circus team.
Our wet field, and residential position by no means made the Circus installation an easy one, and we can’t express how grateful we are that Shaun and the team made it all happen regardless.
Set up challenges aside, the main event went beyond our expectations. Larger than life acts, brilliant use of music and humour all got everyone watching completely engaged.
The smiles of the kids said it all, and the feedback we’ve received from the parents has been fantastic.
We wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Happy’s to other schools.
Best Regards

“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”

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!

“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 were blown away by the circus! The team were incredible both on and off the stage and an absolute pleasure to deal with! So personable and lovely and the show was genuinely amazing! What a talented bunch you have!
Was buzzing that we sold out too.
A real highlight was when I was approaching the tent and the children’s cheers erupted. To see so many families come together was phenomenal.
What an incredible event. Thank you guys for everything, we shall definitely be using you again and recommending to others”

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!!

I wanted to send a quick email to give some very positive feedback about our experience with Happy’s Circus this May 2024.
The school was left immaculate and we cannot wait to welcome them back in two years time!
From the moment of booking through to the follow up call the day after the circus, the team have been unbelievably helpful, organised and kind. They have been there at every turn with the planning emails and phone calls. Any questions we’ve had, they have answered promptly and this has been invaluable for our first circus.
The day itself couldn’t have gone more smoothly. The team are organised and professional. They have so much experience and they use it so well. They offer their help where and when needed and they were so accommodating to all our questions.The performance was brilliant and there was nothing but smile and laughter across the big top. Children went home inspired and in awe of what they had seen. For many it was their first circus experience, and they came out wanting more.
Thank you so much.

“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 50th 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!

Massive thank you to Ross, Pop and the Happy’s Circus team on Sunday.
The Circus show was absolutely amazing – the right balance of acts and comedy. So much crammed into the performances – Ross and Pip were very funny and got funnier during the show. Our kids absolutely loved it!!
So many fantastic and positive comments from parents afterwards as well as the school so a big well done and thank you again.
I suspect that the HSA/School would love to have you back in the future.
