Audience Feedback
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

I would just like to say a massive thank you for yesterday! The circus was amazing and so much more than we expected.The whole evening was perfect, the atmosphere was amazing and the circus is still the main topic of conversation for parents and children, who have told us it’s the best thing they have ever attended and that the school have held.When we booked you 18 moths ago we were all very nervous about how it would work and if we could make it successful, with a lot of hard work and a good team with us and the support for you, it was a huge success. You have all been so helpful, friendly, and given great advice, The team were great in giving us ideas for setting out our stalls to work together.We are not a massive school but with the support from you, and local businesses we estimate we have raise approx £5000 which is phenomenal. We will be booking you again!!

What can we say, except… wow, wow, wow!
Happy’s Circus came to HTL Primary school in Sidcup yesterday, and what an amazing day it was!
From start to finish, the communication with the Happy’s Circus team was extremely detailed from the date of booking- up until the day itself, with regular updates, information, ticket selling advice, classroom games and activities to rouse excitement amongst the children, videos to watch in assembly, and around the clock support in running the event.Yesterday, the wonderful Pippa and Shaun arrived with the Circus convoy in procession, and what an exciting sight it was!
The hardworking staff set up the Big Top in a staggeringly fast time, and the guys and girls worked as a safe, seamless and very strong team! It was hugely impressive!When the gates opened for the event to begin, the children were ecstatic at the sight before them on their school field! The circus staff proceeded to delight children outside the Big Top, and the smell of popcorn and candy-floss filled the air.Then it was show time!All of the performers were out of this world! Exceptionally talented, thrilling to watch, funny, and kept us spellbound throughout the entire show- Pippa, the wonderful ringmaster, kept the audience clapping and cheering and engaged, and the lovely clown had us laughing throughout! The aerial acts were breathtaking and mesmerising.When the show sadly came to an end, again the Big Top was safely dismantled in an almost unbelievable speed and the precision of a well oiled machine- the staff worked hard in the heat together, and after no time at all the field was cleared away.Overnight the staff stayed on our school field and left the site immaculately clean and tidy- Like they’d never been there at all!If you are unsure as to whether to book in Happy’s for your next PTA event, don’t be!
You will not regret doing so. It is a wonderful PTA profit maker, especially if you read and listen to all of Happy’s invaluable advice and assistance, which really helps make your event stress free. We raised £5200 profit after the Event Fee had been paid.The staff are genuinely the most lovely, polite and hardworking team, and it was a pleasure to have them visit our school. From the management, the acts, those working behind the scenes and the lovely drivers and builders!
We can’t wait to book them again.Thank you Pippa, Shaun and the whole team at Happy’s Circus!
We hope you have a well earned rest after such a busy weekend.
With thanks,

Hi Ben, and all the other coordinators at Happy’s Circus,
I just wanted to say a big thank you for all your help on the run up to the circus, nothing was too much trouble and you were all more than helpful!
Our circus was a huge success despite being done slightly differently to how its usually done in terms of tickets sales and the feedback has been amazing!
So can you pass a huge thank you to all the office staff as I appreciate this side of the company doesn’t always get the recognition it deserves!!
We will be looking to do another circus next year in July probably so if you could let me know what days you have available
Many thanks

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!

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

A massive thank you to all the crew, especially ring master Ross who helped me through the whole day. They were so inclusive of everyone’s needs, receiving tremendous praise from all who attended. We were quite anxious about the initial costs but we achieved to raise a large amount of funds for our school whilst having fun. Thank you to all staff who supported us through the whole process.

I just wanted to give you some feedback from our circus on Friday! The whole event went really well. I have had some fantastic feedback from all of our guests. Everyone thought that the show was absolutely brilliant.
From an organisational point of view, you have been an incredible company to work with. From the moment that we booked, right up to the day of the event, the communication and support has been excellent. The team on the day were efficient, polite and left the site in a great condition.
Many thanks to everyone for making it such a great event for us.
Kind regards,

“Working with Happy’s Circus has been an absolute pleasure from beginning to end. The whole team, led by Shaun and Pippa, were professional, efficient, and a joy to have on site — everything ran like clockwork. Emma in the office was outstanding; her clear guidance and encouragement meant we always felt supported and never overwhelmed.
What really sets Happy’s Circus apart is how thorough and thoughtful the process is. The pre-event communications gave us a clear roadmap, with reminders, tips, and practical fundraising ideas that made it easy to stay organised. From planning to setup on the day, nothing was left to chance — every detail was considered, which took the pressure off our PTA and allowed us to simply enjoy the experience.
The event itself exceeded all expectations. The Big Top created a magical atmosphere and the performances were fantastic — children and adults alike were mesmerised, laughing and cheering throughout. Families are still talking about what a memorable weekend it was, and the sense of community spirit it created was priceless.
Importantly, it was also a huge financial success for our PTA, giving us the resources to invest back into the school. Yet it never felt like just a fundraiser — it felt like a true celebration that brought everyone together.
We cannot recommend Happy’s Circus highly enough. They combine professionalism and organisation with warmth and fun, and they delivered an unforgettable event that our community will be talking about for years to come.”
