Circus Starr – The Circus With a Purpose

For the past 24 years Circus Starr has been raising the profile of local and vital charities through the art of circus.

For every performance the dedicated Circus Starr team generate income via sponsorships and donations from local businesses in the area. This enables us to run our unique Donated Ticket Scheme, where tickets are given completely free of charge to children’s charities and community groups enabling underprivileged children and children with disabilities to enjoy a memorable day at the circus.

In 2011 Circus Starr donated £1,345,000 worth of tickets to UK communities.

Circus Starr Director Neville Wilson said “We are delighted with our programme for 2011 and have some very exciting artistes ready for our 2012 shows; we are dedicated to bringing laughter, smiles and entertainment to our audiences as well as enabling local causes to continue with their essential projects. We believe in Circus Starr and the unique work we do, which not only helps these local causes but brings a life changing experience to some of the UK’s most deserving children.”

Get ready for surprises aplenty with Circus Starr’s amazing artistes who have travelled the globe entertaining with their world class acts. Our hilarious clowns are always here with their comedy sequences and side splitting routines that will keep everyone entertained from the youngest to the eldest in the audience.

We continue to work with over 70 local charities in the UK each year, in particular raising funds for the hospice movement.
