Looking for a fun and free family day out this half term? Join us at Culver Square on Saturday 30th May for Cirque Du Square – a full day of circus-themed entertainment, live performances and family activities in the heart of Colchester.
From 10am – 4pm, enjoy entertainment for all ages, including fire breather and juggler performances throughout the day and an interactive circus skills workshop (no booking required!)
There’ll be plenty to get involved with, including prizes to be won with Hook a Duck and Tin Can Alley. Plus they’ll be a colouring station and our sweet jar competition, where one lucky winner will receive a £50 gift card to keep everyone entertained!

Supporting St Helena Hospice
We’re also proud to be supporting St Helena Hospice during Cirque Du Square. St Helena Hospice provides specialist care to local people living with incurable illness across north east Essex, while also supporting families, friends and carers through difficult times.
You’ll be able to meet the St Helena team during the event, and donations towards the charity will be encouraged throughout the day to help support the charity’s incredible work within the local community.
