Then brace yourself as the mesmerising Wheel of Death roars into life. High above the ring, daredevil performers run, leap, and flip at terrifying heights, risking everything in a pulse-pounding routine that will have your heart racing in perfect sync with the electrifying energy of the show.
As the excitement soars, be swept off your feet by our vibrant Cuban Acrobatic Troupe. Bursting with passion and flair, these phenomenal athletes flip and somersault across trampolines and springboards, pushing human limits as they attempt a world-record-breaking triple somersault — a moment you’ll never forget.

And just when you think you can’t take any more excitement, prepare to erupt with laughter as audience favourite “The Geek” makes his triumphant return! Fresh from an award-winning festive tour of France, Germany, and the Netherlands, he’s back to deliver the very best in UK comedy, bringing side-splitting fun and unforgettable audience interaction to Circus Funtasia.

So grab your tickets, gather your loved ones, and dive headfirst into a carnival of breath-taking sights, death-defying stunts, and gut-busting laughs. As the irresistible aroma of popcorn fills the air and the sweet allure of candy floss surrounds you, with a fully licenced bar and sensational hot food you’ll be completely enchanted by the dazzling spectacle that is Circus Funtasia — where magic, excitement, and laughter come alive under the big top.
