Circus Extreme is thrilled to be returning to the UK in 2022. A one-of-a-kind performance, that has been five years in the making and features some of the most talented circus performers in the world.
The United Kingdom was specifically chosen as the location for Circus Extreme due to its diverse cultural background. The United Kingdom is a major centre of the creative industries, and the fourth most visited country in the entire World, so where better to celebrate the vibrant, artistic and awe-inspiring nature of the circus.
Merging modern and contemporary styles with extreme stunts and classic clown escapades, audiences will be amazed by the jam-packed Circus Extreme production which features show-stopping performances that will have you on the edge of your seat.
Acts include the Ayala Troupe, who will be performing an award winning high wire act, which has never been seen before in the UK.
Just back from its European tour, the EXTREME® FMX team will be bringing you its jaw-dropping stunts to the Big Top as our pilots fly through the air displaying cliff-hanger stunts such as the superman and nac nac to name a few. Battling for air space, our resident riders are sure to get the adrenaline pumping as they defy gravity with incredible mid-air backflips.
Our EXTREME® stunt riding team will also be performing the Globe of Death, the most death-defying act ever demonstrated! This incredible stunt will put the performers under G-force similar to that of a fighter pilot. Watch as they loop vertically and horizontally all while encased in a mesh sphere. This really is one for the petrolheads!
World famous Henry the Prince of Clowns, a legendary figure in the circus, will be keeping the audience amused throughout the show.
British legend, Laura Miller, will be showcasing her internationally-renowned aquatic aerial ring which unites the elements of fire, water and air. Witness the aerial hoop skills combining grace, beauty, visually stunning lights and music that will transport viewers into a sci-fi world.
On top of this there will be the Aerial Straps, Low Wire, Juggling and our troupe of dancers performing their acts all with unique twists.
This really is an event with something for everyone. If you’re a petrolhead, theatre-goer, thrill seeker or wanting to see one of the greatest shows of its time, make sure to get your tickets fast.
The show will run for approximately two hours and be housed in the UK’s largest Circus Big Top, which is climate controlled and features comfortable theatre-style seating.
