Returning in 2024 with his flexible team of versatile performers, Professor Elmo is committed to his people-friendly and child-centred style of new wave non-animal circus and clown theatre!

With a long list of activities including traditional Punch & Judy, circus skill workshops as well as educational shows such as their Clown of Science, there’s going to be something for everyone to enjoy!

Chaos Corner

Come join the fun at Chaos Corner! From crazy experiments with Professor Pumpernickel, amazing stories with Ian Douglas and musical adventures with Gacko, there’s something for kids of all ages (and adults too!).
BoomDang will be providing mega drumming workshops, The Magic Lantern brings captivating performances and you can find Joe, Froggy, Alfie and more providing hours of fun (and chaos!) in the tent!
Make sure to keep an eye out for the Songsmiths too! You’ll catch Dick and Tan trundling around the festival pushing their mobile music factory - ever ready to write a bespoke song for you and your family!
