Flipside Circus

Last night the creatives of We Live Here visited Hummingbird House.

It was a powerful reminder of why this story matters. The show honours the incredible health workers, families, and everyone who creates moments of joy, wonder, and magic for children and their loved ones during the most difficult times.

It's a beautiful, tender, and deeply moving experience. Hummingbird House is such a warm and welcoming space for families. A huge thank you to Tayla for so generously hosting us.

Thank you again for supporting Flipside, Hummingbird House, and this work. We can't wait to share it with you all.

Don’t miss We Live Here at the Brisbane Circus Centre. 18-21 June.

"Should be on everyone's bucket list." — The Courier Mail

We have some wonderful news to share. 🎪

Flipside Circus has been named a recipient of the Brisbane Airport Community Giving Fund. We couldn't be more grateful.

Since Flipside's inception, we've believed in the power of circus to transform lives. From aerials and acrobatics to our All Abilities programs and First Nations initiatives, everything we do is about empowering young people and communities to reach new heights (literally and figuratively).

This support from Brisbane Airport means we can keep doing exactly that. Thank you, Brisbane Airport , for investing in the young people and communities that make this city so special. 🙏

Term 1 is coming to an end! It's been a fantastic start to the year with lots of smiles, new tricks learnt and happy families coming through the Brisbane Circus Centre. We'll be back for Term 2 on 20 April for another 10 weeks of circus classes.

If you're looking for a fun way to keep active over the holidays, check out our April school holiday program! Whether your child is a first-timer or a seasoned circus star, there's a spot for them.
