This circus is a real treat! So many awesome, entertaining acts that kept my eyes glued to the action. They are always travelling, so you need to keep your eye on their website for a show near you. We drove up to the Sunshine Coast for our show which was a nice drive. It is a two hour show with a short intermission and the time went so fast.


Clown statue in blue costume sits on a bench. Bright yellow circus backdrop reads "HUDSONS CIRCUS" in bold letters, cheerful mood.

They of course had silly clowns which the kids laughed at, screamed and loved, but there was lots for the adults too. I really enjoyed the aerialists. They are so talented, poised and strong! Their performance was beautiful.


Acrobats perform aerial stunts in a circus tent, wearing bright costumes. Purple and blue lights illuminate the stage with a "Hudsons Circus" sign.

Another big highlight for me was the camels and dogs. The camels moving in sync was so freaking cool. The dogs were so clever and looked like they were having so much fun. Their tails wagging madly as they did tricks and caught frisbees. Sorry it was hard for me to get a decent pic with their zoomies haha.

Lastly omg the Globe of Death or I think Ball of Death it can be called, with the motorbikes in it. My face was just this constant gaping lunatic mesmerised! That stuff is crazy, but insanely cool to watch!

We left chatting madly about how freaking awesome it was. I was so impressed and thought it was excellent value for money. I don't know if it was just us, because we are a disabled person and support worker together that we notice this more, but we saw a lot of people with disabilities and their support person there. I just kept thinking how absolutely wonderful all these people out of their house today, like myself, enjoying such a great form of entertainment and a day out. Just wholesome all round. Loved it.
