What is a sideshow act?

Sideshow acts come from the travelling fairs and circuses of the past: sword swallowing, knife throwing, whip cracking, snake handling, foot archery and comedy strongman feats. They are part skill, part showmanship, and they get a big reaction from any crowd.

Every act is performed by specialists with their own safety routines, and the more dangerous elements are planned with the venue in advance. Sideshow works best as a short, staged spot or as part of a circus or vintage showman theme.

Where it works best

  • Circus and showman themes

    The thrill of an old travelling fair.

  • Awards nights

    A daring spot between categories.

  • Christmas parties

    Something guests will still be talking about in January.

  • Launches

    Daredevil skill for a bold brand.

  • Halloween parties

    Dark, theatrical old-time acts.

  • Festivals

    Short shows that draw a crowd.

Tips from our team

  1. 1

    Plan a safe viewing area

    Knife throwing, whips and archery need a clear zone between the act and guests. We agree it with the venue.

  2. 2

    Check the venue rules

    Some venues have rules about blades or live animals. We ask before confirming.

  3. 3

    Use a compere

    A host or ringmaster to introduce each act builds the tension and the payoff.

Frequently asked questions

How much do sideshow and daredevil acts cost in Epping?

Every booking is quoted individually, because the price of sideshow and daredevil acts depends on availability, your date, location and travel, how long you need them and your exact requirements. Send us your date and venue and we will come back with clear options. Quotes are free with no obligation.

Are sideshow acts safe?

They are performed by experienced specialists with their own safety routines, and we plan the space and viewing distance with your venue.

Can we book snake handling indoors?

Usually, yes, subject to the venue's rules. The handler manages the animals and guests can choose whether to get close.

Is it suitable for every audience?

Some acts are more intense than others. Tell us about your guests and we will suggest the right mix.

Which venues near Epping can hold a large Asian wedding?

On our list, The City Pavilion (up to 1200 guests), The Chigwell Marquees (up to 1000 guests), The Willows (up to 800 guests) and Meridian Grand (up to 800 guests) can take 400 or more guests. Tell us your venue and numbers and we will plan sideshow and daredevil acts around the space.

Do venues around Epping have sound limits for dhol or music?

Many hotels and country houses set a sound limit or an end time, and some ask for unplugged dhol indoors. Tell us your venue when you enquire and we will check its rules before we confirm anything.

Which postcodes around Epping do you cover?

All of CM16, including North Weald Bassett, Theydon Bois, Epping Forest and Thornwood Common, plus the rest of Essex and nearby Loughton, Harlow, Brentwood and Hertford.

What time will the sideshow and daredevil acts arrive, and how will they look?

They arrive smartly dressed and on time, usually 30 to 45 minutes before the performance, so they are ready the moment you need them. We share arrival times and a contact number with you before the day.

Are your sideshow and daredevil acts vetted and insured?

Yes. Every partner is vetted by our team before they are listed. They hold public liability insurance and certificates, carry out risk assessments, and any electrical equipment they bring is PAT tested. Venues often ask for these documents and we can supply them.

How far in advance should I book sideshow and daredevil acts?

For weddings and summer weekends, book as early as you can, ideally several months ahead, as the best dates go first. We can often help at short notice too, so it is always worth asking.

Do you cover Epping and the rest of Essex?

Yes. We book sideshow and daredevil acts in Epping, across Essex and the whole of East of England, for venues, homes and outdoor events.
