Halloween Doorstep Visits That Your Guests Will Talk About

Halloween is one of our favourite times of year. The costumes come out, the props get bigger and a little bit spookier, and we get to do what we love most: surprise people. Our Halloween doorstep visits are a short burst of circus magic delivered straight to your front door or party venue, and they work brilliantly for family gatherings, street parties and small community events.

A typical visit lasts around 20 to 30 minutes. One of our performers arrives in full Halloween costume and makeup, and the show is shaped around your guests. For younger children we keep things playful, with magic tricks, giant bubbles and LED glow juggling that lights up a dark garden. For older children and adults we can turn up the drama with fire performance and a few carefully planned moments of danger. Everything is performed safely, at a sensible distance from the audience, by experienced and fully insured performers.

What Can Be Included?

Every visit is a little different, but most are built from a mix of the following:

  • Magic tricks up close, so the children can see (and not quite believe) what is happening right in front of them.
  • LED glow performance with light-up poi, hoops and juggling props that look incredible once the sun goes down.
  • Fire performance for outdoor visits where space allows, ideal as a finale.
  • Gigantic bubbles, which are always a hit with toddlers and grandparents alike.
  • Photo opportunities with a fully costumed Halloween character.

If you have a theme in mind, from friendly pumpkins to genuinely scary characters, tell us when you book and we will do our best to match it.

Where We Cover

This Halloween we are taking doorstep bookings across Surrey, East Sussex, West Sussex, Hampshire, Northamptonshire, Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire, Oxfordshire, Cambridgeshire, London and Kent. Because our performers live across these counties, we can keep travel costs down and fit several visits into an evening. Prices start at £75, and slots are limited, so the earlier you get in touch the better your chance of securing the time you want.

Planning Your Halloween Party

A few simple things help a doorstep visit go smoothly. Let us know roughly how many guests to expect and their ages, so we can pitch the show right. If you would like fire performance, we will need a clear outdoor space with a little room around the performer. For indoor parties we switch to LED and magic, which still create plenty of wow without any open flame. And if anyone in your group has additional needs, just mention it. Our team are SEND specialists and Makaton trained, and we are always happy to adapt.

Doorstep visits also make a great surprise. We have turned up at birthday parties that happened to fall on Halloween weekend, at community trick or treat trails, and at small business events looking for something a bit different on 31 October.

Why Families Book a Doorstep Visit

Halloween parties can be hard work for the host. Keeping a room full of excited children entertained while also handing out sweets, serving food and answering the door is a lot for anyone. A doorstep visit gives everyone a shared moment to focus on, and it gives you half an hour to breathe. Parents often tell us it is the part of the evening the children remember, long after the sweets have gone.

More Than Halloween

If Halloween gets you thinking about other events, the same performers are available all year round. We provide stiltwalkers, fire and LED glow shows, gigantic bubble artists and circus skills workshops for schools, festivals, weddings and corporate events across the UK. Many of our Halloween customers come back to us for Christmas parties, bonfire night displays and summer fun days.

Halloween Visit FAQs

How long does a doorstep visit last?

Most visits last between 20 and 30 minutes. If you would like a longer slot, for example a full party set with a workshop, just ask and we will quote for it.

Is it too scary for young children?

Not at all, unless you want it to be. We pitch every visit to the audience. For little ones we keep it fun and silly, with bubbles, magic and glowing props, and we save the spookier characters for older groups.

Do we need anything for the fire show?

Just a clear outdoor space, away from trees, gazebos and decorations, with room for the audience to stand back. We bring everything else, including safety equipment, and we will check the space before we start.

Giant Bubbles at a Spring Event in Dorking

Easter and spring events are made for bubbles. The weather is (usually) a little kinder, families are out in force, and there is something about a giant, shimmering bubble floating across a green that makes everyone stop and look up. This spring we brought our bubbleology show to an Easter event in Dorking, Surrey, and it was a joy from start to finish.

Our bubble artists use specially made wands, ropes and nets to create bubbles of every size, from clouds of tiny bubbles that children can chase to enormous tubes that stretch several metres before they pop. Some of the biggest bubbles are taller than the adults watching them. With a bit of skill and a helpful breeze, we can even send bubbles over the heads of the crowd or wrap a child inside one.

What Is Bubbleology?

Bubbleology is our name for the art and science of giant bubbles. It is part performance, part science lesson and part interactive play. During a walkabout set our performers move around the event, creating bubbles wherever the children are. In a more structured session we explain a little of what is going on: why bubbles are round, why they show rainbow colours, and why some days are better for bubbles than others.

That mix of wonder and learning is why bubbleology works so well at schools as well as public events. Children who are not interested in juggling or balance often light up when the bubbles come out, and it is one of the most inclusive activities we offer. Bubbles are visual and sensory, and children of all ages and abilities can join in.

Why Bubbles Work So Well at Spring Events

  • They draw a crowd. Giant bubbles can be seen from right across a field, so they help pull people towards your stalls, stage or activity area.
  • They suit all ages. Toddlers chase them, older children try to make their own, and adults take photos.
  • They are gentle. There is no loud noise or fire, which makes bubbles ideal for younger audiences and for children with sensory sensitivities.
  • They look great on camera. Event organisers love the photos and videos for their social media.

Bubbles Across Surrey and Beyond

We perform regularly across Surrey, including Dorking, Guildford, Sutton and the surrounding towns, and we have bubble artists based in other parts of the country too. Our team members live in Bristol, Brighton, Leeds, Kendal, Sheffield, Newcastle, Manchester and London, so we can bring bubbleology to events nationwide without big travel costs.

Giant bubbles pair perfectly with our other acts. Many organisers book a bubble artist alongside a circus skills workshop, so children can watch the bubbles and then have a go at juggling, plate spinning and diabolo. Others add a bubble stiltwalker, who towers over the crowd while filling the air with bubbles. It is a lovely combination for Easter fairs, spring fetes and garden parties.

A Moment From the Day

One of our favourite moments in Dorking was watching a group of younger children who had been a little shy at the start. By the end of the afternoon they were running alongside the biggest bubbles, laughing and pointing, and one of them had a go at making her own with a small wand. That is exactly what we hope for at every event: everyone involved, nobody left on the sidelines, and plenty of happy faces for the photographers.

Planning Bubbles for Your Event

Bubbles are at their best outdoors, ideally with a little space and a light breeze. Very strong wind or heavy rain can make things tricky, so for outdoor bookings we always have a plan B and can move to a covered area or switch to smaller bubbles. We can also perform indoors in larger halls, where we use different techniques to keep things safe and slip free.

Giant Bubble FAQs

Are the bubble solutions safe?

Yes. We use child-friendly bubble mixes and keep the area tidy as we go. We do recommend sensible footwear on hard surfaces, as bubble mix can make the ground slippery.

How long can a bubble artist perform for?

Most bookings are made up of walkabout sets of around 45 minutes, with short breaks in between. We can fit around your event timings and stage schedule.

Can you put a child inside a bubble?

Indoors, yes. With our bubble ring set-up we can lift a giant bubble around a child (or a bride and groom) for a brilliant photo moment.

Christmas Event- organised by @ibentoevents

Don't miss the Bezerkaz Circus Skills Workshop and giant bubbles organised with @ibentoevents at the amazing www.throwleyyardcinema as part of the @enjoysutton Christmas excitement

Christmas at Throwley Yard: Free Circus Fun for Sutton

We were delighted to be part of the Christmas celebrations at Throwley Yard in Sutton, an event organised by iBento Events and Enjoy Sutton. The event brought the community together for a festive afternoon and evening, with a Christmas market, a tree switch-on in Manor Park and plenty of entertainment for families. Our job was to bring the circus, with free circus skills workshops and giant bubbles for everyone who came along.

Free community events like this are some of our favourite bookings. Families who might never book a circus workshop for a party get to try juggling, plate spinning and diabolo for themselves, and children leave with a new skill and a big smile. It is a brilliant way for a town centre to say thank you to the people who use it.

What Happened on the Day

Our team set up a circus skills area where children and adults could drop in, pick up a prop and get started. Our tutors showed everyone the basics and then helped them build on what they could do. Some children mastered spinning a plate on a stick within minutes; others spent ages working on a juggling pattern and were thrilled when it finally clicked.

Alongside the workshop, our giant bubbles kept the crowd entertained. Even on a chilly winter day, bubbles look magical, especially as the light fades and the Christmas lights come on. They are a great way to draw people towards the activity area, and they give younger children who are not quite ready for juggling something to chase and enjoy.

Why Circus Works at Christmas Events

  • It is interactive. Visitors are not just watching; they are joining in, which keeps them at the event for longer.
  • It suits every age. Toddlers chase bubbles, children learn tricks and adults often have a go too.
  • It adds atmosphere. Costumed performers, bubbles and LED props make a space feel festive and busy.
  • It is flexible. We can work in a market square, a car park, a shopping centre or a school hall.

Christmas Entertainment We Offer

Christmas is one of our busiest seasons. As well as drop-in circus skills workshops and giant bubbles, we provide stiltwalkers in festive costumes, including our much-loved stiltwalking Christmas trees, along with LED glow performers who look fantastic at evening light switch-ons. For schools we offer end-of-term circus workshops and assembly shows, and for businesses we offer Christmas party entertainment and team building sessions.

Our performers are based across the UK, from London and Brighton to Bristol, Leeds, Sheffield, Manchester, Kendal and Newcastle, so we can reach most Christmas events without large travel costs.

A Few Highlights

It was lovely to see whole families learning together. Parents who started out holding their children’s coats were soon trying the diabolo themselves, and a few grandparents proved to be naturals at plate spinning. As the evening drew in and the lights came on in Manor Park, the giant bubbles caught the glow of the Christmas lights and made for some really special photos. Moments like these are why we love community events so much.

Working With Event Organisers

We work with event companies, councils, Business Improvement Districts and community groups to plan entertainment that suits the space and the crowd. We can provide a single performer for a couple of hours or a full team for a weekend, and we are happy to fit around stage times, parades and switch-on moments. A big thank you to iBento Events and Enjoy Sutton for having us at Throwley Yard.

Christmas Event FAQs

Can circus workshops run outdoors in winter?

Yes. We bring props that work well in cold weather, and we can set up under a gazebo or move indoors if the weather turns. Juggling and plate spinning keep people warm too!

Do you provide stiltwalking Christmas trees?

We do. Our stiltwalking Christmas trees and festive characters are popular at markets, light switch-ons and shopping centre events, and they make for great photos.

How many people can join a drop-in workshop?

Drop-in sessions run continuously, so there is no fixed group size. We bring enough tutors and props to keep things moving, and we can add extra staff for busy events.

Can you work alongside other entertainment?

Absolutely. We regularly share events with choirs, bands, Father Christmas grottos and funfair rides, and we plan our sets around the main moments of the day, such as the lights going on.

Amazing Fireball from Bezerkaz Circus Fire Performer at Fireworks Display in Lincolshire, Midlands, UK

Fire Performer in Lincolshire on Fireworks Night 2024

Fire Performance at a Fireworks Display in Lincolnshire

Bonfire night is the night fire performers live for. This year we performed at a large public fireworks display in Lincolnshire, with more than 12,000 people in the crowd. The photo above captures one of those moments where everything comes together: the flames, the dark sky and a crowd holding its breath. You can almost feel the heat.

Fire performance works brilliantly at fireworks events because it fills the gap before the main display. While people arrive, find their spot and grab a hot drink, our performers keep the atmosphere building with fire juggling, fire staff, fire poi and, as a finale, a few huge fireballs that light up the whole field.

What Makes a Great Fire Show?

A good fire show is about much more than flames. It is about pace, music and reading the crowd. Our performers build the show slowly, starting with smaller tricks and working up to the big moments, so the audience is with them all the way. They also know how to work with event teams and safety officers, fitting the show around the timings of the fireworks and any announcements from the stage.

  • Fire juggling and fire staff for classic circus skill with a dramatic edge.
  • Fire poi and fire hoops that create beautiful circles of light.
  • Fire breathing and fireballs for a show-stopping finish.
  • LED glow performance as a flame-free option for indoor events or tighter spaces.

Safety First, Every Time

We are fully insured for fire performance and we take safety seriously. Before every show we check the performance area, agree a safe distance for the audience and keep fire safety equipment to hand. Our performers are experienced professionals who know exactly how far their flames reach and how the wind will affect them. We have never burned anyone, and we intend to keep it that way.

Fire Shows for More Than Bonfire Night

Fireworks displays are only one part of the story. Fire performance is a fantastic addition to many other events, including:

  • Weddings, as an evening surprise for guests.
  • Christmas parties and New Year’s Eve celebrations.
  • Eid and Diwali celebrations.
  • Birthday parties and milestone celebrations.
  • Festivals and outdoor concerts.
  • End of school celebrations and university balls.

Fire works perfectly alongside our other acts. Many clients book our meet and greet stiltwalkers to welcome guests early in the evening, then bring in LED glow performers as the light fades and finish with a fire show. It gives an event a real sense of building towards something.

Behind the Photo

The image at the top of this post was taken during the build-up to the main fireworks. Our performer had worked through a set of fire juggling and staff tricks, and the fireball finale was timed so the crowd were already gathered and facing the right way. The reaction was exactly what you hope for: a gasp, a cheer and then a sea of phones being held up to catch the next one.

We Cover the Whole Country

With core team members based in Glasgow, Brighton, Yorkshire, Cumbria, Birmingham, London and Bristol, we can reach events all over the UK without large travel costs. That is how we can perform at a Lincolnshire fireworks display one week and a wedding in Sussex the next.

Fire Show FAQs

How much space do you need?

It depends on the show, but as a guide we need a clear area of a few metres in every direction, away from trees, gazebos and overhanging decorations, with the audience kept back behind a sensible line.

Can you perform indoors?

Most indoor venues do not allow open flame, so for indoor events we switch to LED glow performance, which gives a similar wow factor without the fire.

What if it rains?

Light rain is usually fine. In very bad weather we will talk to you and the event team about the safest option on the night.

Happy Halloween LED Glow Juggler

LED Glow Juggling for a Halloween Celebration in Surrey

Halloween and LED glow juggling are a perfect match. When the lights go down and the music starts, glowing clubs, hoops and poi trace patterns through the dark, and suddenly the whole room is watching. This Halloween our LED glow juggler performed at a celebration in Surrey, and you can see a short clip of the show in the video above.

LED props are programmable, so they can change colour, flash and even display patterns as they spin. In the hands of an experienced juggler they create shapes and trails of light that look almost impossible, and on camera they look even better. It is a modern twist on classic circus skill, and it works for audiences of every age.

Why Choose an LED Glow Performer?

  • It works indoors. There is no open flame, so LED shows are suitable for halls, function rooms, marquees and venues where fire is not allowed.
  • It suits all ages. The colours and patterns appeal to young children, while the skill involved impresses adults.
  • It looks amazing in photos. Guests love filming the show, and the clips are perfect for sharing on social media.
  • It can be themed. For Halloween we use spooky colours and costumes; for weddings and corporate events we can match your colour scheme.

What Does an LED Show Include?

A typical LED glow set includes juggling with light-up clubs and balls, poi spinning, hoop manipulation and visual pixel props that can display images and patterns as they move. Shows can be choreographed to music, or performed as a roaming walkabout where our performer moves through the crowd, stopping to show off tricks up close. We can also combine LED performance with fire for outdoor events, starting with glow and finishing with flames.

Perfect for Halloween Parties

Halloween is one of our busiest times of year. As well as LED glow shows we offer Halloween doorstep visits, spooky stiltwalkers, magic, fire performance and giant bubbles, all with a Halloween twist. LED performance is ideal for children’s Halloween parties because it is spooky enough to be exciting without being too scary, and it works well in a darkened hall or garden.

LED Glow Performance All Year Round

LED shows are not just for Halloween. They are popular at:

  • Weddings, as an evening entertainment surprise.
  • Christmas parties and New Year’s Eve events.
  • Festivals and night-time markets.
  • Corporate events, product launches and awards evenings.
  • School discos, proms and end of term events.

LED performers also pair really well with our stiltwalkers, and we have LED stiltwalking costumes that tower over the crowd and light up a whole room.

How We Plan a Halloween LED Show

Before the event we ask a few simple questions. How many guests are expected, and how old are they? Will the room be dark, or will there be disco lights? Is there a particular moment, such as a cake or a costume parade, that the show should lead into? With those answers our performer can choose the right props and music and plan a set that fits the evening.

On the night our performer arrives early to get changed, check the space and test the props. LED props are bright, so we also think about where the audience will be, making sure everyone gets a good view and nobody is too close to the spinning clubs and poi.

After the show, there is usually time for photos and questions. Children often want to know how the props work, and we are always happy to show them a few simple tricks and let them see the lights up close.

Inclusive Entertainment

Because LED shows are visual and can be adapted in brightness and pace, they can work well for SEND audiences too. Our team are SEND specialists and Makaton trained, and we are happy to talk through any sensory needs before the event so we can adjust the show.

LED Glow FAQs

How long is an LED glow show?

Most stage shows run for 10 to 20 minutes, while walkabout sets usually last around 45 minutes. We can combine both for longer events.

Do you need a stage?

No. A clear space and low lighting is all we need, although a darker room really helps the colours stand out.

Can you perform outdoors?

Yes, LED shows look fantastic outside after dark, and we can add a fire finale where it is safe to do so.

Book an LED Glow Juggler

To book an LED glow performer for Halloween or any other event, call or WhatsApp 07866 261346 or email info@bezerkaz.co.uk. Our performers are based across the UK, including Surrey, London, Brighton, Bristol, Leeds, Sheffield, Manchester, Kendal and Newcastle.

Bezerkaz Circus at Banbury Fayre Makaton and Bubbles

Makaton, Bubbles and Big Smiles at Banbury Fayre

Community fayres are at the heart of what we do, and Banbury Fayre was a lovely example of why. Families from across the town came out for a day of stalls, food and entertainment, and we were there with our giant bubbles and our inclusive approach to circus fun, using Makaton alongside speech so that everyone could join in.

The bubbles were, as always, a big draw. Children came running from across the field to chase them, and parents stopped to film the biggest ones as they drifted overhead. But what made this day special for us was seeing children of all abilities taking part together, with Makaton signs helping us to communicate with everyone, not just those who find spoken language easy.

What Is Makaton and Why Do We Use It?

Makaton is a language programme that uses signs and symbols alongside speech. It is widely used by children and adults with learning or communication difficulties, and it is taught in many schools and nurseries across the UK. Signing key words as we speak helps children understand what is happening and gives them another way to respond.

Our team are Makaton trained, and our coordinator Shaun is an experienced SEND and PMLD teacher. We use Makaton naturally throughout our workshops and walkabouts, signing words like “bubble”, “more”, “again” and “finished”. It costs nothing extra, it never gets in the way of the fun, and for some children it makes all the difference between watching from the side and feeling part of the show.

Why Bubbles Are So Inclusive

Giant bubbles are one of the most accessible activities we offer. They are:

  • Visual, with rainbow colours and huge shapes that are easy to follow.
  • Sensory, as children can reach out, touch and pop them.
  • Calm, with no loud bangs or sudden noises.
  • Flexible, so children can join in for a few seconds or a whole hour.

For children who are wheelchair users or who prefer to stay in one place, we bring the bubbles to them. For children who love to run, there is plenty of space to chase. Everyone can have a moment of wonder at their own pace.

Inclusive Entertainment for Fayres and Fun Days

We believe every public event should be welcoming to every family. As well as Makaton, our team have experience with basic BSL, low tech and high tech AAC devices and sensory adaptations. If your event has a quiet zone or an accessible area, we can plan time there too, with gentler bubbles and smaller groups.

Alongside bubbles, we offer circus skills workshops, stiltwalkers, LED glow shows and balloon modelling, all of which can be adapted for different needs. Many event organisers tell us that our inclusive approach is one of the main reasons they book us.

Simple Signs Anyone Can Learn

During the day we taught a few easy Makaton signs to children and parents who were curious. “Bubble” is a lovely one to start with: you mime blowing and then draw a round shape with both hands. “More” and “again” were very popular, especially when the biggest bubbles had just popped. It was great to see families using the signs together, and a reminder that inclusive communication can be fun for everyone, not just for those who rely on it.

A Day to Remember

By the end of the afternoon, the field was full of families who had stopped to watch, chase and sign along. Some of the children had learnt a couple of new Makaton signs from us, and several parents came over to say how nice it was to see their children included without having to ask. That is the kind of feedback that means the most to our team.

Thank you to everyone at Banbury Fayre for having us, and to all the families who came to say hello.

Banbury Fayre FAQs

Do you charge extra for using Makaton?

No. Makaton is simply part of how we work, at every booking.

Can you work with SEND schools as well as public events?

Yes. We work with SEND schools, specialist provisions, respite services and hospices, and we can provide references from organisations we have worked with.

Do you cover Oxfordshire and the Midlands?

Yes. Our team travel across Oxfordshire, Northamptonshire and the Midlands, and we have performers based across the UK.

We would love to come back to Banbury next year, and we are always happy to talk to other fayre and fete organisers in the area about bringing inclusive circus fun to their events, whether that is bubbles, workshops, stiltwalkers or a mix of everything.

Bezerkaz Circus at Great Ormond Street Race for the Kids

Supporting Great Ormond Street at the RBC Race for the Kids

Some events are simply a privilege to be part of, and the RBC Race for the Kids in Hyde Park is one of them. The event raises money for Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity, and this year it raised around £900,000 for a hospital that does extraordinary work for children and families from all over the UK. We were proud to bring our bubbleology show to Hyde Park and add a little magic to the day.

Thousands of runners took on the 5k and 10k courses, many of them running for children who have been treated at Great Ormond Street. Families, friends and supporters lined the route and filled the event village, and our job was to keep the atmosphere bright and fun for everyone, especially the children waiting for mum, dad or a big brother or sister to cross the finish line.

Bubbles in Hyde Park

Our bubble artists worked across the event village, creating giant bubbles that floated over the crowds and drifted across the park. Children chased them, popped them and tried to catch them, and plenty of runners stopped for a photo with a bubble on their way to collect their medals. A wide open space like Hyde Park is perfect for bubbles, giving them room to grow and travel.

The response was wonderful. Families who had come to cheer on a runner found something to enjoy while they waited, and children who had been patient for a long time had a chance to let off steam. Bubbles are gentle, visual and inclusive, which made them a great fit for an event where some of the children taking part have spent a lot of time in hospital.

Why Charity Events Matter to Us

We started out as a community organisation and charitable work is still a big part of who we are. Over the years we have visited children’s centres and social projects around the world, run workshops in Morocco, India and Argentina, and supported charity fun days across the UK. We have also visited Great Ormond Street Hospital itself, and we know how much a bit of fun can mean to children and families going through a difficult time.

Being part of the Race for the Kids felt like a chance to give something back. We have nothing but admiration for everyone who ran, volunteered and donated.

Entertainment for Charity Events

We work with charities and fundraising teams on events of every size, from small coffee mornings to large public races. Our acts include:

  • Giant bubbles for event villages, start and finish areas and family zones.
  • Stiltwalkers to welcome participants and create a carnival feel.
  • Circus skills workshops so children can try juggling, plate spinning and diabolo.
  • LED glow and fire shows for evening events and galas.

We understand that charity budgets matter, and we are always happy to talk about what we can offer within yours. With performers based across the UK, from London and Brighton to Bristol, Leeds, Manchester, Sheffield, Kendal and Newcastle, we can keep travel costs to a minimum.

Working at Large Public Events

Big events need entertainers who can work alongside event managers, safety teams and stewards. Our performers are experienced at large-scale events, including festivals such as Glastonbury Kidz Field and WOMAD. We are fully insured, we arrive on time, and we fit around the event schedule, whether that means pausing for a race start or moving to a different area as the crowd shifts.

A Day That Stayed With Us

What stays with us most from Hyde Park is the families. Many were running in memory of a child, or in thanks for treatment that changed their lives, and the atmosphere was a mix of emotion, pride and celebration. Seeing children laughing as they chased bubbles across the grass, while their families shared stories nearby, was a reminder of why events like this matter so much.

Charity Event FAQs

Do you offer reduced rates for charities?

Every charity booking is quoted individually. Get in touch with your plans and budget and we will see what we can do.

Can you cover a full day?

Yes. We can provide performers for a full day, working in sets with short breaks, and we can bring a larger team for bigger events.

Outdoor bubbleology

One of our busiest ever years!

Bezerkaz Circus have been at events all over the UK from Tilbury to Tyneside, Brighton to Bolton and Windermere all the way down to Worthing. We have visited Great Ormond Street Children’s Hospital and performed at countless school fetes and fun days. We are also delighted to work in an increasing number of specialist provisions, respite services and SEND schools. Shaun uses Makaton, basic BSL and also has experience incorporating SaLT techniques into communication , to provide a unique service where we communicate on the child’s own terms, rather than expect them to adapt to us! With Halloween fast approaching, we are getting ready for spooky entertainment season as well as using our vast range of LED glow performance and fire show props. We hope you catch us at an event !

Looking Back on a Busy Year

Every year feels busy in the circus world, but this one has been something else. Our team have performed and taught at events from Tilbury to Tyneside, from Brighton to Bolton, and from Windermere right down to Worthing. We have been part of school fetes, family fun days, festivals, charity events and corporate days, and we have loved every minute of it.

It is the variety that keeps the job exciting. One weekend we might be running circus skills workshops in a school playground; the next we are on stilts at a festival, filling a field with giant bubbles or lighting up a dark night with a fire show. Each event brings new people, new challenges and plenty of memorable moments.

Highlights From the Year

  • Great Ormond Street. We were proud to visit Great Ormond Street Children’s Hospital and to perform at the RBC Race for the Kids in Hyde Park, which raised a huge sum for the hospital’s charity.
  • School fetes and fun days. We lost count of the number of school events we attended, bringing circus skills, bubbles and stiltwalkers to playgrounds and playing fields across the country.
  • Festivals. From big outdoor festivals to small local food and family events, our performers have been out in all weathers keeping crowds entertained.
  • Specialist provisions. We have worked with more SEND schools, specialist provisions and respite services than ever before, which is something we are especially proud of.

Growing Our SEND Work

One of the most rewarding parts of the year has been the growth of our work with SEND schools and specialist settings. Our coordinator Shaun is an experienced teacher who uses Makaton and basic BSL, and he has experience of bringing speech and language therapy (SaLT) techniques into the way we communicate. The idea is simple: we communicate on the child’s own terms, rather than expecting them to adapt to us.

In practice, that means adapting every part of a session. We think about noise levels, lighting, group size and the pace of activities. We use signs, symbols and objects of reference, and we choose activities that are sensory and visual, such as gigantic bubbles, balancing with other people, balloon modelling and passing balls. The result is a circus session where every child can take part and achieve something.

Getting Ready for Spooky Season

As the year moves on, we are preparing for Halloween, one of our favourite times of year. Our LED glow props and fire show kit are coming out of storage, our costumes are getting a spooky makeover, and we are taking bookings for Halloween parties, doorstep visits and community events. LED glow performance is perfect for indoor Halloween parties, while fire shows make a fantastic finale for outdoor events and bonfire nights.

A Team That Covers the Country

The reason we can say yes to so many events is our team. We have tutors and performers based across the UK, including London, Brighton, Bristol, Leeds, Sheffield, Manchester, Kendal and Newcastle. That means we can travel to most events without big travel costs and give organisers a fair, local price wherever they are.

Our performers are multi-skilled, so one person can often cover several roles in a day. A single booking might include a stiltwalking meet and greet, an afternoon of circus skills workshops and an evening LED or fire show, all from the same performer.

Thank You

A huge thank you to every school, event organiser, charity and family who booked us this year. Your support means we can keep doing what we love and keep bringing circus to people who might never otherwise get to try it. We hope you catch us at an event soon.

Looking ahead, we are already taking bookings for next year’s school fetes, festivals and summer fun days, so if you would like us at your event it is never too early to get in touch.

Amazing Bubble Moment at Feasty Fest

A Giant Bubble Moment at Feasty Fest

Every so often a photo captures exactly why we do what we do. This one, taken at Feasty Fest, is one of those. A giant bubble rising above the crowd, children reaching up towards it and faces full of wonder. It is a simple moment, but it sums up the joy that bubbles bring to any event.

Feasty Fest is a family food festival with a friendly, relaxed feel, and it was a perfect setting for our bubble artists. Between the food stalls, music and activities, our performers worked their way around the site creating bubbles of every size, from clouds of tiny ones for toddlers to chase to huge, wobbling tubes that stretched across the field.

Why Food Festivals Love Bubbles

Food festivals attract families, and families need entertainment while they queue, eat and relax. Giant bubbles are ideal because they:

  • Keep children happy while parents grab food and drink.
  • Move around the site, so every area of the festival gets a bit of magic.
  • Draw people in, with bubbles visible from right across the field.
  • Need very little set-up, so they fit around stalls and seating areas.
  • Create great photos that festival organisers can use in their marketing.

The Art of Giant Bubbles

Making giant bubbles takes more skill than it looks. Our bubble artists use specially made mixes, wands and rope frames, and they constantly read the wind to decide where to stand and how big to go. On a still day we can create enormous bubbles that hang in the air; on a breezy day we use the wind to send long chains of bubbles drifting over the crowd.

We also adapt for the audience. With very young children we work low to the ground, making bubbles they can touch and pop. With older children we might show them how to make their own, and with adults we save the biggest, most dramatic bubbles for the moments when everyone is watching.

Bubbles on Stilts

For festivals that want something extra, our bubble stiltwalkers combine two of our most popular acts. Standing tall above the crowd in colourful costumes, they create bubbles from a height, which means the bubbles travel further and can be seen from all over the site. Bubble stiltwalkers are always one of the most photographed parts of any festival.

More Than Bubbles

As well as giant bubbles, we bring circus skills workshops, stiltwalkers, LED glow performers and fire shows to festivals across the UK. Many festivals book a mix of acts across the day, with bubbles and workshops in the afternoon and LED or fire performance in the evening. We have performed at events including Glastonbury Kidz Field, WOMAD and the Royal International Air Tattoo, as well as countless local festivals and fun days.

What Families Said

One of the best things about working at a food festival is how long people stay. Families who stopped to watch the bubbles for a minute often ended up spending half an hour with us, with children taking turns to try the smaller wands and parents snapping photos between bites of lunch. A few of the children came back again and again throughout the day, each time a little braver about reaching for the biggest bubbles.

Organisers noticed it too. Having roaming entertainment meant the quieter corners of the site felt as lively as the busy areas near the stage, and the bubbles helped guide people towards stalls they might otherwise have missed. For a festival built around food and community, that kind of gentle, moving entertainment fits perfectly.

Festival Planning Tips

If you are planning a family festival, think about where children will naturally gather: near food, near the stage and around seating areas. That is where roaming bubble artists and stiltwalkers have the most impact. It also helps to give performers a base where they can store kit and refill bubble mix, ideally close to the main family area.

Festival FAQs

How many performers do we need?

For a small festival one or two performers is usually enough. Larger events often book a team so there is always something happening.

What happens if the weather is bad?

We always have a plan B, from moving under cover to switching to indoor-friendly acts.

Thank you to the Feasty Fest team for having us. It was a brilliant day, the food smelled amazing all afternoon, and we came away with some of our favourite bubble photos of the whole year. We cannot wait to see what next year’s festival brings.

If you run a food festival, street food market or family event, giant bubbles are one of the easiest ways to add atmosphere without taking up much space.

A Late Summer Celebration in Sutton

On 21 September 2024 we joined the Rosehill community in Sutton for their Family Fun Day, a lovely late summer event that brought neighbours, families and local groups together. Community fun days like this are some of our favourite bookings. They are relaxed, friendly and full of people who are there simply to enjoy themselves, and there is always a great sense of local pride.

Our team brought a mix of circus fun to the day, giving children and adults the chance to watch, join in and try something new. The weather was kind, the crowd was brilliant and the whole event had a warm, welcoming feel from start to finish.

Bringing the Circus to the Community

Community events work best when everyone can take part, whatever their age or ability. That is why we focus on interactive entertainment. At a fun day like Rosehill, our tutors set up a drop-in circus skills area where children can try juggling, plate spinning, diabolo and flower stick, with a tutor on hand to help them get started and build their confidence.

Giant bubbles are another favourite at community events. They draw children from all over the site and give younger ones something magical to chase, while older children and adults enjoy watching the biggest bubbles float away. Many families end up spending a good part of the afternoon with us, moving between the bubbles and the circus skills area.

Why Councils and Community Groups Book Us

  • Inclusive activities. Our team are SEND specialists and Makaton trained, so everyone can join in.
  • Interactive fun. People do not just watch; they have a go, which creates real engagement.
  • Flexible set-up. We can work on grass, in a car park, in a hall or under a gazebo.
  • Local performers. With team members across the UK, including London and the South East, we keep travel costs down.
  • Experience. We have been providing circus entertainment since 2001, at events of every size.

Community Engagement That Lasts

A good fun day leaves people feeling more connected to their area, and circus is a great way to make that happen. Learning a skill together breaks the ice. We often see parents and children who arrived separately end up practising side by side, and neighbours chatting while their children take turns on the diabolo. Some children go home having learnt to spin a plate or juggle for the first time, and that sense of achievement stays with them.

We also see how events like this help local organisations connect with families. Stalls, services and community groups benefit from the extra footfall that entertainment brings, and our performers are always happy to point people towards other activities on the day.

Entertainment Ideas for Fun Days

If you are planning a community event, here are a few combinations that work well:

  • A drop-in circus skills workshop running all afternoon, with giant bubbles nearby.
  • A stiltwalker to welcome families at the entrance and roam the site.
  • A short circus show on the main stage to bring everyone together.
  • An LED glow or fire finale if your event runs into the evening.

Planning Tips for Organisers

A few small things make a big difference on the day. Place the circus skills area somewhere visible but slightly away from loud speakers, so children can hear the tutors. Give the bubble artists an open patch of grass downwind of the main crowd, so the bubbles drift over people rather than into stalls. And think about shade or shelter, as a gazebo keeps both performers and families comfortable whatever the weather does.

Fun Day FAQs

Do you need power or a stage?

No. Our workshops and walkabout acts are self-contained, and we only need a safe, clear space.

How many children can take part?

Drop-in sessions run continuously, so there is no limit. We bring enough tutors and kit for busy events.

Can you work with tight budgets?

Yes. Tell us your budget and we will suggest the best mix of acts to make the most of it.

Thank You, Rosehill

A big thank you to everyone at the Rosehill Community Family Fun Day for having us. It was a pleasure to be part of such a friendly event, and we hope to see you again next year.

It was also lovely to see local groups and volunteers working together to make the day happen. Events like this rely on people giving up their time, and the result was a fun day that felt genuinely shared by the whole community.
