“The absolute biggest thanks to you and your team Rebecca!
What a phenomenal day was had by all. Genuinely never had a better response from an event we have put on at school! Absolutely fantastic.

“The circus was fab and we had around 530 plus volunteers attend on the night! It felt packed and was a brilliant night. Over £4K In profit for the school!!!

“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.”

“We were absolutely delighted to welcome Happy Circus to Stanground Academy, and we cannot thank them enough for the fantastic show they delivered for our students. The performance was vibrant, engaging, and full of energy – a truly magical experience that had everyone smiling from start to finish.
The team brought a wonderful mix of humour, skill, and professionalism, creating a fun and safe environment where students could relax and enjoy a high-quality live performance. It was heartwarming to see the joy and excitement on the faces of our young people, many of whom were experiencing a circus show for the very first time.
It was a great way to end our academic year on Carnival Day, creating memories that will last long after the summer break.
Thank you, Happy’s Circus, for bringing such a memorable and uplifting event to our school. We hope to welcome you back again in the future!”

“Hello Emma

I just wanted to drop you a note with regards to our Circus event on 21st July.
The support we had from initial booking to event day was fabulous! As we had never had the Circus or an event on this scale at our school, it was so good to know we could ask any questions and call on you when needed. The information packs you sent us were also really useful. On the day, Shaun and his team were great, we really felt like we were in safe hands and as a result, our event was a huge success.
We have raised approx. £3k from our event which will go a long way in refurbishing our library.
We are keen to book again for 2028!
Thank you, Clare”

“We are so immensely happy with our experience with Happy’s Circus. My contact Rebecca could not have been more helpful, with updates along the way, useful materials to boost interest in ticket sales and always happy to answer any questions we had.

The circus were so professional on arrival and set up, getting the excitement going with the big top being up for our fete beforehand.

Thanks to the Circus, programme, sponsorship and fete we raised over £7300 in profit!

Everyone was amazed at the acts and how they could perform such a great show in the school field! The children loved Mr Slinky, giggled and screamed at Steve the clown and ring mistress Pippa’s antics and everyone was in awe of the acrobatic acts.

The day couldn’t have gone any better!”

“We had an absolutely fantastic experience working with Happy’s Circus. From start to finish, the team were professional, friendly and incredibly well-organised. The pre-event communication was excellent, with helpful emails and calls that made the planning process smooth and stress-free.

On the day itself, Shaun and the team were brilliant. They arrived and departed exactly as scheduled, and the set-up and dismantling of the Big Top was carried out with military-style precision — it was genuinely impressive to watch! Despite their busy schedule, Shaun kindly took the time to hold some impromptu Q&A sessions with our children, which created so much extra excitement around the event and meant a great deal to us as a school.

The show itself was fantastic — all the performers were excellent, and it was a real treat to see such a talented, high-energy cast entertain families of all ages. The children especially loved getting sprayed with water at the end — a brilliant moment that had everyone laughing! It was a true family event and created memories we’ll be talking about for a long time.

Thanks to the evening’s success, we were able to raise over £2,500 profit for our school — especially pleasing given our short selling window and limited stalls (just food, drinks and a raffle).

We’d definitely look to welcome Happy’s Circus back again in the future and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to other schools and organisations looking for a fun, professional and memorable event.

A huge thank you to Shaun, Pippa, Rebecca and the whole team for making it such a wonderful experience!”

“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”

“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”

“Just to let you know, we raised an amazing £7,572.77 from your visit to us. Obviously we’re delighted, thank you so much for all your help and support along the way – you’ll be pleased to know, I’ve now taken you off speed dial!”
