Amazing and a must do when in the area! It's situated in the basement of Blackpool tower and is an old fashioned circus. Refreshments are available and the show itself was brilliant. Best to book in advance as it can get really busy. You are however NOT allowed to take any photos or videos during the performance which is a shame but completely understandable. Highly recommend, suitable for all ages and even had me giggling

Absolutely nothing like it was when I went a number of years ago to watch with one of my daughters & school. We went on Sunday 07/06/2026 as part of a birthday package. Upon getting there we were told by the person on the door that we needed to go to Madam Tussauds ignoring what we were saying & dismissing what was on our smart code ticket. The sounding was awful. It kept echoing due to how loud it was causing some children to become distressed. Mooky the clown was as I remember him being from a number of years ago. I’d led my family to believe it was a good show to watch & to find it was very disappointing so much so we walked out at the interval. It was nothing like a circus show, it was an absolute joke. We were also told not to sit at the back or to sit at the front with no explanation as to why yet other people were sitting there. The seats were so uncomfortable & the smell in the room wasn’t pleasant neither. Very disappointed. No wonder there were a lot of empty seats.

Visited here with my husband and nine year old on the bank holiday weekend. We thought it was superb value for money at nearly 2 hours of entertainment for £15 for adults and less for children. A great variety of acts, really impressive performances and fabulous hosts. I cannot recommend it enough.

Superb, i was entertained completely, its a must see if your in Blackpool and well worth the price. I booked 4 VIP group tickets online easily. The venue in the tower is amazing. VIP seats at the front have lots of legroom, so if you need some space book the VIP seats. The show is extremely breath takingly good, funny and professional acrobats do some stunning performances. Complementary drink and a simple snack is included with VIP and brought to your seat if you have mobility issues.

No taking photos whilst show is on. Cash only to buy gifts from the entertainment but card can be used to by refreshments. Ultimate pass is the best value for money but purchase from the water park. Must see show lasts for 2hrs. Longest running indoor circus that has never mist a show in over 60 years
