National Circus Festival 2022

Tickets will be available at the gate only if not sold out prior to the festival. Gate tickets will incur an additional administration fee.

Festival Weekend

Friday, 30 September - Sunday, 2 October

National Circus Festival showcases the incredible talents of Australian circus artists, profiling established shows and companies as well as supporting emerging artists and works in development.

Join Australia's circus community for a three-day celebration of circus arts and physical theatre, ranging from youth circus performances to award-winning, internationally-acclaimed acts. 

Enjoy a wide range of performances in the big top, cabarets, sideshows, the outdoor flying trapeze, circus workshops, industry talks and more.

Grab a bite to eat from a range of delicious, healthy food stalls or a have a drink and talk shop with your favourite circus artists at the bar.

National Circus Festival takes place on Bundjalung country and we acknowledge the traditional custodians with respect and gratitude for the stunning land on which we play, work, love and laugh.

The festival is a 'waste-wise' event. Please support us by sorting your waste into the compost and recycling bins and limit your rubbish to landfill. Bring a water bottle or purchase a National Circus Festival stainless steel bottle for refilling while onsite.

Limited 3-day camping passes are available. You will need to bring your own camping gear and be prepared for onsite living with shared amenities and limited power at the base of Mt Chincogan by the Brunswick River. Unplug and reconnect!

Three-day non-camping, weekend and single day passes are also available.

Tickets will be on sale at the gate with an additional processing fee if not sold out prior to the day.

Please note that your ticket is non-refundable but fully transferable. If you can't attend, send a friend!

Covid-19 Safety Info

Spaghetti Circus values a healthy community, and our priority is to bring our festival to life for the safety of everyone. Our Covid safety plan will be updated as restrictions change.

COVID-19 Conditions of Entry

Event access is restricted, limiting anyone who has:

• Flu-like symptoms or is unwell in any way.
• Is subject to a self-quarantine or self-isolation period.

To enter the event, attendees must use the covid safe measures that are current at the time of the festival.

If you are a primary ticket holder for a group, you are responsible for knowing the contact details of each individual in your group. Event management has the right to ask patrons who display COVID-19 symptoms to leave the event.

FORCE MAJURE & COVID-19 CANCELLATION 

In the event that the festival is cancelled due to a Public Health Order or other government instruction, natural disaster or any event beyond our reasonable control, we will refund 90% of your ticket price on a pro-rata basis according to cancellation time. As we do not hold insurance to cover the risk of cancellation, 10% of your ticket price will be retained to cover administration and production costs.

Alternatively, we can provide a credit for the amount you have paid us, which you can use for another Spaghetti Circus event or service. If you choose to accept a credit, you will need to pay an administration fee of $40.00. We appreciate your understanding as a non-for-profit that relies on community support, volunteer workers and government funding to hold our event/festival.

Booking Fee

We use Humanitix as our ticketing platform. There are a number of reasons for this but one of the major reasons is the impact the platform makes on social causes. You will notice a booking fee included in your ticket purchase. This fee goes directly towards supporting community projects. Find out more.
