Family ticket to Zippo's Circus

Zippos Circus is back on the road in 2018 with a nationwide Big Top tour – “LEGACY” - celebrating the 250th anniversary of the circus. Expect a spectacle like no other as extraordinary equestrians, astonishing acrobats, comic clowns and dashing daredevils join together in the ring to pay homage to Englishman and charismatic impresario, Philip Astley who invented the worldwide sensation that is circus in 1768.

The electrifying cast will also introduce timeless comics, modern clown Totti and his wife, Charlotte, a traditional White Face Clown, from Belgium, and Brazilian Capoeira comic acrobat Paulo Dos Santos– a brilliant 3 foot 11 inches tall showman who was most recently at Ringling Bros and Barnum & Bailey. Dos Santos won first place in Brazil’s National Capoeira Championships and his antics will incorporate elements of Capoeira (a Brazilian mixed martial art combining music, dance and acrobatics) into the show.

Another sure fire hit of the show is daredevil Pablo who will perform high in the Big Top atop a dazzling Space Rocket plus Cuban acrobats the Hermansito Troupe, showing off their Springboard and Russian Bar skills. Footjuggling from Romy. Perhaps most daring will be Alex Michael, the fearless Brazilian aerialist who swings and walks upside down 30 feet above the audience with no safety nets or wires.

The future of circus is not forgotten at Zippos Circus, in the form of The Garia Brothers, the young sons of Pablo who will finish the show with their extraordinary hand balancing skills.

We are giving away five family tickets to give away (for two adults and two children), to Zippo's Circus, at Oaklands Park, Yardley, from Thursday 19th to Tuesday 24th April.​
