Summer’s coming, and the circus is set to be back in town.

The all-human Santus Circus, Le Cirque de France, brings its new show to Sandwich this week, followed by a visit to Dover next week.

The only circus company in the UK featuring a flying trapeze act, it is a traditional circus with a French flavour. This year’s show includes top artists from all over the world.

Performances will run for around two hours, and visitors will get to see high-wire walking, juggling, the ‘Chinese pole’, hula-hooping, foot juggling, and some gentle, friendly clowning.

The Big Top will go up at The Showground in Ash Road in Sandwich from Thursday, June 27, until Sunday, June 30.

The show then heads to Deal Road opposite the Duke of York’s Military Academy from Wednesday, July 3 to Tuesday, July 9.

Entry on Wednesdays and Thursdays is £8; on other days from £10, with a family £45.
