ELEVATE CIRCUS WORKSHOPS UK
Circus Skills Workshops for Schools, Events & Corporate Teams Across the Bristol Area
Bringing juggling, plate spinning, stilts & more to schools & events in the Bristol Area
Circus Skills Workshops Bristol
Bristol has a long love affair with circus, and our workshops let your pupils, guests or colleagues have a go themselves.
Our performers work across the city, from Old Market to Redland, with schools, wedding parties, scout groups and private events.
A Clifton primary school might book an enrichment day, a Harbourside business a team-building session, and a community group in Southville an activity for its summer fair.
We set up in village halls, classrooms in Montpelier and at outdoor festivals on The Downs, bringing a full kit each time.
We also travel around the wider area, including Bath, Weston-super-Mare, Portishead, Clevedon, Keynsham, Yate, & Thornbury.
Every session is planned around your group size, your space and your budget.

Bristol School Circus Skills Workshops
From £225.00!
In a circus workshop, the child who finds maths easy and the child who finds it hard are both staring at the same wobbling plate.
That level start is what teachers like about it, along with the fact that the whole class is active for the whole session.
Each class works with the performer in turn, trying plate spinning, hula hoop, juggling, flower sticks and diabolo.
There is room for children to choose what they stick with, and plenty of praise for effort as well as success.
Primary schools in Montpelier, St Pauls and across Bristol can book for arts weeks, sports weeks, reward days and Year 6 leavers' events.
Classes see the skills performed before they try them, with a short show in assembly or a demonstration at the start of each session. Performers are DBS-checked and bring everything. Let us know your dates and how many classes you have.
Circus Skills at Bristol Festivals & Fun Days
From £225.00!
Bristol does not need much persuading to join in, and a circus skills area gives it the chance.
Lay out the equipment and within minutes the space is full of people of every age trying something they have never tried before.
There is no queue for a single turn. Everyone has their own plate, hoop or set of balls and can keep going as long as they like.
It is busy, cheerful and slightly chaotic, in the best way.
The performer circulates, teaching first steps and setting small challenges for those who pick it up quickly.
Juggling balls, plates, hula hoops, diabolos, poi, ribbons and flower sticks are all included.
It suits events on The Downs, community festivals in Bishopston or Horfield, school fairs and family parties across Bristol and the surrounding area.
The performer mixes teaching with little performances throughout the day, so there is always something to watch while you wait for a turn. A level pitch and some cover are all we need from you.
Walkabout Acts for Bristol Events
From £225.00!
Nothing gathers a crowd faster than someone doing something difficult at close range.
That is the principle behind walkabout entertainment: skilled performers working a few feet from the audience, with no stage in the way.
They can lead a parade, liven up a queue, entertain between courses or simply wander and see who they meet.
We can supply stilt walkers, jugglers, magicians, bubble artists, balloon modellers, face painters and hula hoop artists.
After dark, fire performers and LED poi make a memorable close to the day.
They are a good choice for festivals, harbour events, street parties, weddings and corporate functions across Bristol.
Tell us about the event and we will suggest acts to suit the space and the crowd.
Circus Tent Hire in Bristol
A big top turns a patch of grass into a destination.
People walk towards it without being told to, which is a useful quality in a venue.
Inside there is room to teach, perform or celebrate, with the weather kept firmly outside.
We have a 7m round, a 15m round and a 22m oval tent, in white and yellow or purple and yellow.
The 7m works for workshops and small celebrations, the 15m for school and neighbourhood events, and the 22m for full-scale shows.
They can be hired across Bristol and the surrounding area for school circus days, festivals, fetes, weddings and anniversary parties.
Hire a tent alone, or with our circus workshop performers and walkabout acts.
Sizes, colours and availability are given below.
Bristol Corporate Circus Skills
From £225.00!
Most people have not learned a new physical skill since they passed their driving test.
That is why an hour of juggling and plate spinning feels so different from a normal working day, and why teams come out of it livelier than they went in.
It is sociable by nature. People swap tips, laugh at near misses and applaud each other's first clean catch.
We can run it as a light break in a busy day or as a structured workshop with team goals.
The BBC, Sky, the NHS and the National Trust have all brought our performers in for their staff.
We work at offices and venues across the city, including the Harbourside and Clifton, and supply all the equipment.
Send us your group size and timings. You can find out more below.
