ROLL up, roll up - a circus big top has pitched up outside the Trafford Centre as part of its world tour. 

Circus Extreme is back in the UK for a one-of-a-kind performance that has been five years in the making and promises to feature some of the most talented performers in the world.

The show will be at The Trafford Centre's Peel 7 Car Park from July 2 to July 18.

Merging modern and contemporary styles with extreme stunts and classic clown escapades, the show-stopping performances are sure to have families on the edge of their seats. 

Acts include the Ayala Troupe, who will be performing their award-winning high wire act which has never been seen before on these shores.

Direct from Columbia on the wheel of Death are Duo Vanegas, debuting in the UK and proud to be presenting their incredible aerial manoeuvres, including their unbelievable high jumps and back flips.

Just back from its European tour, the EXTREME freestyle motocross team will be bringing its jaw-dropping stunts to the big top as pilots fly through the air displaying cliff-hanger stunts while the stunt riding team will also be performing the Globe of Death.

World famous Henry the Prince of Clowns, a legendary figure in the circus, will be keeping the audience amused throughout the show.

A spokesman said: "This really is an event with something for everyone. If you’re a petrolhead, theatre-goer, thrill seeker or wanting to see one of the greatest shows of its time, make sure to get your tickets fast."

The show will run for approximately two hours and is housed in the UK’s largest socially-distanced circus big top, which is climate controlled and features comfortable theatre-style seating.
