    Line up everyone, it’s time for a fancy dress party!

    Get your tickets, get your invites, get your circus costumes and get ready to have loads of fun. A circus dress up party is the most fabulous theme for a party, be it a child’s birthday party, a teen’s birthday party and an adult’s party, for any celebration. If you are throwing a circus party you can really get into the theme. If this is an adult party, hire a marquee! If it is a child’s party a marquee might be a bit expensive but you can always decorate your garden to look like a marquee! Guests can dress up as ringmasters, lion tamers, trapeze artists, clowns, jugglers, and pretty much anything they choose. You can collect tickets at the door, which would be the invitations, and then give the kids tickets for the different games and different food stalls. And yes, you can have food stalls, one for popcorn, one for cold drinks, one for burgers and one for hot dogs, or similar. You can hire a clown to do a show, and perhaps you can juggle. Juggling can be a game, so can musical clowns!
