South London’s Aircraft Circus are not your ordinary big top buccaneers: last year, they took their latest show Midnight Circus aboard the peripatetic frigate HMS Stubnitz and into the cavernous Hangar Arts Trust building. The latest version amps up the action with all manner of new acts, from a flaming acrobalance sequence to an intimate contortion duet in a Perspex bowl contraption. 

After the excitement of this year’s Circusfest, Jacksons Lane continues its fine tradition of bringing cutting edge circus to North London with this immersive promenade experience, which incorporates aerial hoop, trapeze, rope and pole, silks, straps and spark-flying angle grinding. Even better, Jacksons Lane are also hosting late night Saturday performances with themed cocktail and drinks deals and after hours DJ sets.

Midnight Circus will be at Jacksons Lane from 18 June to 12 July. You can win a pair of tickets for any show during that run except those on Saturdays, in one of three ways.
