Audience Feedback

I wanted to send a quick email to give some very positive feedback about our experience with Happy’s Circus this May 2024.

The school was left immaculate and we cannot wait to welcome them back in two years time!

From the moment of booking through to the follow up call the day after the circus, the team have been unbelievably helpful, organised and kind. They have been there at every turn with the planning emails and phone calls. Any questions we’ve had, they have answered promptly and this has been invaluable for our first circus.

The day itself couldn’t have gone more smoothly. The team are organised and professional. They have so much experience and they use it so well. They offer their help where and when needed and they were so accommodating to all our questions.The performance was brilliant and there was nothing but smile and laughter across the big top. Children went home inspired and in awe of what they had seen. For many it was their first circus experience, and they came out wanting more.

Thank you so much.

“Nearly a week on and our team is still buzzing from the fabulous day that was created by having Happy’s Circus visit our School.

The support offered from day one of booking, has been superb! Emma in particular has been my main contact, and she was professional, friendly and super helpful throughout.

The set up, the show and the take down of the Big top by the team worked like a well oiled machine. The kids absolutely loved the show.

We are super thankful that Shaun, Pippa and rest of the team came to Cobham PS. The day raised a huge amount of funds for us! Thank you a thousand times”

We had such a wonderful experience with Happy’s Circus. From the very first contact, the support was really helpful, timely, supportive, and positive. We managed to sell all 600 tickets in advance, and along with sponsorship from local businesses, a few PTA stalls, and selling pitches to traders we managed to raise over £4000 for our PTA. The team on the day were extremely sleek and professional and were really self-sufficient. That was the one thing we didn’t need to worry about on the day. The show itself was a big hit, from the efficiency of getting guests seated, to the acts themselves, everyone was really impressed. There was a great mix of impressive acrobatics and comedy, and of course the kids screamed with joy at the water guns! We would have the circus back in a blink and now knowing how successful it was, would be able to be much more relaxed at how easy the process was.

Thank you Happy’s Circus and hope to see you again soon!

Outstanding Experience with Happy’s Circus!

As the Chair of the Hollyfast PTFA, I wanted to share our fantastic experience with Happy’s Circus. As a PTFA, we had the ambitious idea of bringing a circus to our school, despite never having organised anything on this scale before.

From our very first enquiry, the support we received was exceptional. Emma guided us through every stage of the planning process, providing regular communication, helpful advice, and great ideas to help us maximise fundraising opportunities. We always felt fully supported and nothing was ever too much trouble.

On arrival, the entire team were professional, friendly, and incredibly accommodating. We had some logistical challenges with the site, involving two playgrounds and a field, but the team handled everything brilliantly. Sean, the show manager, was particularly helpful, professional, and a pleasure to work with.

Watching the Big Top go up was amazing, and the whole team worked efficiently and safely. Throughout the event, it genuinely felt like we were one team working together to make the evening a success.

We deliberately kept our ticket prices affordable to ensure the event was accessible to all families, and alongside our refreshments and tuck shop, we were delighted to raise just under £3,500 for our school. These funds will go directly back into enriching the experiences and opportunities available to our pupils and family’s

The performance itself was absolutely fantastic. Every act was entertaining, professional, and thoroughly enjoyed by children and adults alike. The whole show was extremely well organised and delivered to a very high standard.

Following our post-event meeting, we are already discussing bringing Happy’s Circus back to our school, possibly for two nights next time.

A huge thank you to everyone at Happy’s Circus. We absolutely loved working with you and would highly recommend you to any school or organisation looking for a memorable fundraising event.

WOW! WOW! WOW! What a fabulous evening we had on Friday! Thank you so much to everyone at Happy’s – including Pippa and Sean who were just so professional on Friday. The feedback we’ve had already from so many parents has been extraordinary and one child even declared it the ‘Best day of my life’! What more could we ask for?!

I am 100% convinced we will be booking you again – it was a triumph! Thank you so much for all your support along the way Leeanne, it was much appreciated.

“My granddaughter (aged 9) and I encountered Happy’s Circus at Mead Open Farm. What an experience! We saw the show not once, but twice. Excellent performances by all the cast. We were enthralled. My heart was in my mouth a few times with the pole and aerial acts. Plus would the guy catch the Diablos from such great heights. Of course he did!! A big THANK YOU to everyone involved”

A thoroughly enjoyable interactive event for all ages across the primary school; parents and staff enjoyed too!

The pupils experienced the exciting atmosphere of the Big Top and were treated to a quality show complete with costumes, lighting and sound, from highly skilled performers and acrobats.

Safeguarding protocols and Health and Safety are held in high regard for this very professional company.

They provide schools with a host of certificates, risk assessments and relevant documentation in these areas.

There is a ‘moral’ theme running through the show which is a positive one in that we should all feel good about ourselves and respect others, treating them as we wish to be treated ourselves.

The event raised much needed funds for the school also! Happy Circus, Happy Audience!

Happy Circus came to St Micheal’s School Stewkley on Saturday 13th May.

It was a truly wonderful afternoon. The Circus performance was brilliant, they got both adults and children laughing and the acrobats were astounding, definitely 5 star entertainment!
Everyone from school was very impressed and left ‘Happy’. We also managed to raise a lot of much needed funds to help with the school playground makeover project. I would recommend inviting Happy Circus to your school, it’s a novel, exciting and effective fundraiser.

Hi Ben, and all the other coordinators at Happy’s Circus,

I just wanted to say a big thank you for all your help on the run up to the circus, nothing was too much trouble and you were all more than helpful!

Our circus was a huge success despite being done slightly differently to how its usually done in terms of tickets sales and the feedback has been amazing!

So can you pass a huge thank you to all the office staff as I appreciate this side of the company doesn’t always get the recognition it deserves!!

We will be looking to do another circus next year in July probably so if you could let me know what days you have available

Many thanks

Just wanted to say a massive thank you again for yesterday everyone had such a brilliant time and all I am hearing today is people talking about it. Yourselves and the team yesterday have been brilliant from day one helping so I personally can’t thank you enough. Even my son who has been there with me all weekend setting up said please can you send them a message mom to say how good it was.

So much so that I am looking to book again, it is our 85th year as a school in 2023 and was looking at booking yourselves on Saturday 15th July 2023, is this possible? As it is such a big event for the school I would like it to be much bigger than yesterday and as well as yourselves get a lot more people involved with more stalls etc.

How do I go about booking this please?

Thanks
