How it works
Acts and prices
Prices are per professional performer and include GST. They are a guide only: every booking is subject to the performer confirming and your venue being suitable. Travel outside Geelong is quoted separately.
Not sure what to pick?

Requesting is free. Your booking is confirmed once we lock in your performer and send your invoice. Looking for something else, like fire, diabolo or foot juggling? Ask us.
Roving or pop-up?
Your performer moves around the event, mingling and interacting with guests. Perfect for arrivals, cocktail hours and festivals.
Your performer stays in one spot and becomes a focal point, like a living sculpture or feature act that guests gather around.
Performers need breaks
One hour of performing is usually 2 to 3 short sets, with rest breaks in between.
Circus is physical. Set lengths vary by act and by the energy each one needs, and breaks keep your performer safe, sharp and at their best for your guests. Booking 2 or 3 hours gives you more sets and better value.
Performer levels
Every event is led by a Professional. For bigger line-ups or tighter budgets, we can add performers from our other levels.
Experienced, highly skilled artists who are confident interacting with guests. The headline of any event. All prices on this page are for Professional performers.
Artists with some performance experience who are still building confidence in roving. Best booked alongside a Professional.
Emerging artists with developing skills and limited roving experience. Always performs with a Professional.
Aspiring young artists from our programs, for child-friendly events only. Always performs with a Professional, plus a parent or chaperone.
Want a mixed line-up? Ask us for options and pricing.
