What is a circus theme?
A circus theme is all about spectacle: a ringmaster to run the night, aerialists overhead, contortionists, stilt walkers and fire to finish.
It works brilliantly for awards nights, product launches and summer parties, because every act gives guests something to point at and film. Freestanding aerial rigs mean you do not need ceiling rigging points.
Where it works best
Step 1
A ringmaster to host and introduce each moment
Step 2
Stilt walkers and walkabout characters as guests arrive
Step 3
An aerial act on a freestanding rig
Step 4
Contortion or a fire show as the finale
Tips from our team
- 1
Let the ringmaster host
A ringmaster can introduce speeches, awards and each act, so the night flows like a show.
- 2
Go outdoors for fire
Save the fire show for a terrace, courtyard or garden as the finale.
- 3
Check your ceiling early
If you want aerial overhead, we check the venue's rigging. If not, we bring a freestanding rig.

How big are the wedding venues around Chelmsford?
The venues on our list near Chelmsford hold up to 350 guests, with Braxted Park the largest. For bigger weddings, families often look further across Essex. We cover them all.
Do venues around Chelmsford 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.

Do aerial acts need rigging points?
Not always. Freestanding aerial rigs work in most venues with enough height. If your venue has rated rigging points we can use those instead.
Can the circus theme work indoors?
Yes. Everything except fire works indoors with enough space. Fire is planned for outdoor areas and with the venue's approval.
