Circus Skills Workshops for Schools, Events & Corporate Teams Across the Glasgow Area
Bringing juggling, plate spinning, stilts & more to schools & events in the Glasgow area
Circus Skills Workshops Glasgow
Glasgow audiences are famously warm and famously honest, which makes the city a fine place to teach circus skills.
Our performers run workshops for schools, weddings, scout groups and private parties across Greater Glasgow and the West of Scotland.
You will find us in village halls, in classrooms in Dennistoun and at outdoor events in Kelvingrove Park, as well as at community days in Shawlands.
Each performer travels with a full range of equipment and comes straight to your venue.
A Bearsden primary school can book an enrichment day, a community group in Paisley a gala day activity, and a Glasgow City Centre firm a team-building session unlike any they have had before.
We can set up in a playground, a hall or any event space.
We plan each session around how many are coming, where it is and what you want to spend.
We cover the surrounding area too, including Paisley, East Kilbride, Hamilton, Cumbernauld, Greenock, & Dumbarton.
Let us know where in Glasgow or the wider region your event is and we will send a quote.
Find out more about our circus workshops for schools.
Glasgow School Circus Workshops
From £225.00!
Tell a class the circus is coming and you will not need to ask for their attention again that day.
Our performers arrive with plates, juggling balls, diabolos, hula hoops and flower sticks, and every pupil gets hands-on straight away.
Classes come to the hall one at a time, so P1s can enjoy simple balancing and spinning while the upper school gets stuck into juggling and diabolo tricks.
It is good for coordination and concentration, and even better for confidence.
Primary schools in Shawlands, Pollokshields and across Glasgow can book for health weeks, activity days, summer fairs and P7 leavers' celebrations.
The day kicks off with a short show, either for the whole school in assembly or as a quick demonstration at the start of every class session. All our performers are PVG scheme members and bring everything needed. Tell us which dates suit you.
Circus Skills for Glasgow Gala Days
From £225.00!
A gala day is judged by how long people stay.
Give them a circus skills area and they will stay a good while, because nobody wants to leave just as the diabolo is starting to behave.
It is open to everyone, from the wee ones waving ribbons to the grandparents who turn out to be dab hands at plate spinning.
Our performers keep things friendly, show each person how to get started and then let them get on with it.
We supply juggling balls, spinning plates, diabolos, hula hoops, poi, ribbons and flower sticks.
It works for gala days in Bearsden or Milngavie, events in Kelvingrove Park, school fairs and birthday parties across Glasgow.
Every now and then the performer stops to show off a trick or two, which never fails to pull in another crowd of children and parents. All we need is a level space, with some cover in case of rain.
Walkabout Entertainers in Glasgow
From £225.00!
A crowd in Glasgow will tell you straight away whether it is enjoying itself.
Our walkabout entertainers like that. They work at close quarters, trading jokes with the audience while juggling, stilt walking or twisting balloons.
Because they roam, they bring the event to people who are queuing, eating or just passing through.
We can provide stilt walkers, jugglers, magicians, bubble artists, balloon modellers, face painters and hula hoop artists.
On dark evenings, fire performers and LED poi are hard to beat.
They suit gala days, festivals, weddings, ceilidhs, Christmas events and company parties across Glasgow.
Tell us the date and the kind of event, and we will recommend the acts.
Big Top Hire in Glasgow
No one in the West of Scotland plans an outdoor event without a wet-weather option.
A big top is the wet-weather option that people actually want to be inside.
It is colourful, it is roomy, and it makes the whole site look like an event.
Sizes are a 7m round, a 15m round and a 22m oval, in purple and yellow or white and yellow.
A 7m tent holds a workshop group, a 15m suits a school or community event, and a 22m can host a full show.
They can be hired across Glasgow for school circus days, gala days, festivals, weddings and big family parties.
Take the tent alone, or add workshop performers and walkabout acts.
Sizes, colours and availability are below.
Glasgow Corporate Circus Workshops
From £225.00!
You learn a lot about a colleague by watching them try to juggle.
Some are methodical, some are fearless, and some will happily talk you through a technique they have not yet managed themselves.
A circus skills workshop gives a team an hour or two of that, away from desks and deadlines.
Our performers teach the basics, keep everyone involved and can finish with a team challenge if you would like some friendly rivalry.
We have run sessions for staff from the BBC, Sky, the NHS and the National Trust.
We can come to your office or to a venue in the City Centre, the Merchant City or Finnieston, and we bring all the kit.
Send us your numbers and a date. You will find more information further down.
