Shibden Park: Circus returning to Halifax with jaw-dropping stunts and 'globe of death'

Merging modern styles with extreme stunts and classic clown escapades, the jam-packed show will be wowing crowds at Shibden Park from June 23 to July 2.

Acts include the Guinness World Record-holding high wire act Ayala Troupe and the Danguir Troupe, who will be performing their amazing and jaw-dropping gymnastic stunts.

And a daring motocross stunt riding team will be performing the ‘Globe of Death’ - a death-defying act that puts the performers under a G-force similar to that of a fighter pilot as they loop vertically and horizontally, all while encased in a mesh sphere.

Henry the Prince of Clowns will be keeping the audience amused throughout the show with his japes and pranks.
