Circus Skills in the Park
Join us in Wivenhoe Park honing your circus skills - it's going to be fun for everyone!
With our fully trained circus skills leaders to show you how, try your hand at juggling, diablos, handling hoops - and many more. We're excited to be working with the Grand Theatre of Lemmings who have over 10 years’ experience of circus skills to share with us.
Admission free - no need to book, just turn up. Beginners welcome.
Suitable for eight-years-old upwards, though there will be additional activities for younger family members.
Arrive at Art Exchange and our team will show you where to find us in the park.
