The award-winning Zippos Circus is coming to STEVENAGE with ‘Horsepower’, a superb brand-new show for families and adults alike.

Rolling into town, the huge big top will be set up in Fairlands Valley Park in Stevenage from Thursday 10th March to Tuesday 15th March.

Back in Britain after a lifetime of starring in the greatest circuses of Europe and America, we welcome equestrian princess YASMINE SMART. Yasmine is acknowledged as a ‘Grand Dame’ of the circus, and her personality and elegance are as amazing as her gentle and beautiful equestrian presentations.

Another ‘first’ at Zippo’s for 2011 is the ‘other sort’ of horsepower - powerful motorbikes in the nerve-tingling and death-defying GLOBE OF DEATH, the three riders sealed inside a steel-mesh ball as they hurtle past one another at 60mph -- while a young lady stands in the centre!

There are Russian comic acrobats on a huge bike, Kimberley hanging by one toe on the swinging trapeze, Germain foot-juggling live flames on her Harley, and super-clowns the Konyots.

Presented as always by Norman Barrett MBE, the world’s greatest Ringmaster.
