I am writing on behalf of the Friends of Anlaby Primary who invited Happy’s Circus to visit our school on the 25th of June.

The circus team were incredible, from start to finish. From initial discussion right up to them arriving we had all the information we needed. They talked us through everything, sent over risk assessments and gave us ideas for pricing and marketing too.

When the team arrived they were friendly and professional, they were set up on the school site and to help the children get excited they invited each of the classes in to have a look around the tent and meet the crew. The kids had an amazing time and feedback from the headmaster was very positive.
For the event, we had two smaller one hour events rather than their usual 2hr event to make up for the restricted numbers.

The tent set up was great. The circus team seated everyone safely and efficiently. Everyone was super friendly and professional. The shows were unreal. Both different and both had each crowd totally amazed, engaged and howling with laughter! Thoroughly entertaining.

We’ve had so much feedback from parents and children to say it’s the best night they’ve had in a very very long time. Parents loved it just as much as the kids.

Once inside the tent it truly was like being somewhere else with the lights and sound effects.

Honestly it couldn’t have gone better. When the team left, they did so conscientiously, with no rubbish or mess left behind. They also spent some time supporting our local businesses too!

We can’t wait to get the team back, neither can the families who saw them.

Thank you so much Happy’s Circus for giving our community a truly unforgettable experience.

Kind Regards

“Working with Happy’s Circus has been an absolute pleasure from beginning to end. The whole team, led by Shaun and Pippa, were professional, efficient, and a joy to have on site — everything ran like clockwork. Emma in the office was outstanding; her clear guidance and encouragement meant we always felt supported and never overwhelmed.

What really sets Happy’s Circus apart is how thorough and thoughtful the process is. The pre-event communications gave us a clear roadmap, with reminders, tips, and practical fundraising ideas that made it easy to stay organised. From planning to setup on the day, nothing was left to chance — every detail was considered, which took the pressure off our PTA and allowed us to simply enjoy the experience.

The event itself exceeded all expectations. The Big Top created a magical atmosphere and the performances were fantastic — children and adults alike were mesmerised, laughing and cheering throughout. Families are still talking about what a memorable weekend it was, and the sense of community spirit it created was priceless.

Importantly, it was also a huge financial success for our PTA, giving us the resources to invest back into the school. Yet it never felt like just a fundraiser — it felt like a true celebration that brought everyone together.

We cannot recommend Happy’s Circus highly enough. They combine professionalism and organisation with warmth and fun, and they delivered an unforgettable event that our community will be talking about for years to come.”

Happy’s Circus were an absolute pleasure to deal with from start to finish.

Behind the scenes questions and queries were dealt with immediately and the crew on the day were friendly, approachable and efficient. They put on an amazing show enjoyed by our whole community from 0-90 years!

A HUGE thank you to the Happy’s Circus team!

Thanks

“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”

Dear Shaun and Circus Team

I just wanted to say a HUGE thank you for all the fun and laughter you offered my Westfield children, families and the local Berkhamsted community this weekend. This was the first fundraising event we have had since the pandemic – what a wonderful way to begin to ‘ live through Covid ‘ by being entertained by you all.

It was so refreshing to see the children laughing , smiling and having a good time and this being extend to their parents, grandparents , aunts , uncles, and friends.

I look forward to arranging for you all to return in the future.

Thank you all

Happy’s Circus is an extremely professional and wonderful team. They knew what they were doing and got on with it. They’re highly skilled team had that big top tent up in a matter of hours and the performance was just spectacular! Our community and school loved the show and the school children loved watching the tent go up also!

I would highly recommend Happy’s Circus for a PTA/school event, it was a wonderful experience and one that has created memories for not just our children but our adults as well. Happy’s Circus administration team were brilliant also, I had monthly updates/countdowns and regular communication.

Shaun, you should be extremely proud of yourself and your team for the joy and happiness you have brought to the children. Well done and I look forward to seeing you all again soon!

I enquired about having your circus come to Scampton C of E School back last year and due to internal changes, we didn’t think we would be able to book you but by a miracle, we found a date and all systems were go!!!……Your information was absolutely amazing. All the information is really detailed to help you plan the event and the office team then follow up with phone calls and chats. There was never anything too hard to sort out as you had answers to even the silliest questions.

So, we started selling tickets online and sales started and our planning remained on track. The day arrived and a busy day it was…… the Advance team arrived nice and early without too much trouble and entered the school grounds. The children were so excited even at 9am, so learning on Circus Day was going to be hit and miss. The rest of the team followed and proceeded to do their thing. Pippa held a briefing with our team and we all went about our tasks for the day.

We had a special surprise for the Circus as the infants put on a play for Pippa, Shaun, and the rest of the guys as well as a local TV team that came to interview the Circus team and later broadcast the interview!

Then the time came to open the gates…… The school filled up and there was an excited buzz of happy laughter which was such a dream to hear.

The show started and sadly ended, and the feedback was just amazing. The memories people had made and taken from your team will be treasured forever.

I would 1000% recommend your circus to anyone thinking of booking one.

We are only a very small school (54 pupils) so if we can achieve what we did then anyone can.

Thank you to each – and – every person involved in Happy’s Circus……. It was a blast!!

We invited Happy’s circus to our village primary school this week as a PTA event! They were fantastic! The communication and organisation before they arrived was outstanding! Their arrival and preparation for the event was smooth and planned to perfection! They helped us run an event that was enjoyed by all the family at the same time as promoting our fundraising and helping us to raise funds for the school! We received brilliant reviews from everyone that attended! We would highly recommend them! Thanks Happy’s Circus you are fab!!! We wouldn’t hesitate to use you again!
