The festival organisers program an exciting, inspiring and eclectic mix of current performers who embody the principals of this timeless art form. In doing so they hope to share the joy and exhilaration of Clown with a wide breadth of audiences both young and old.
The festival is also sustainable for performers and punters alike, with £5 tickets and fair offers and development opportunities for artists. Additionally, 2016 saw the festival – which took over an abandoned car park in Manor House – host three free cabarets as well as talks on clowns in crisis areas charity work.
