Waiheke Circus Have-A-Go!

Circability is excited to bring a free accessible circus have-a-go event to Waiheke's Artworks Theatre on Saturday, 10th May from 2-4pm! *Note* - all children under 12 years old need to be supervised by a parent or guardian. This is not a drop-off activity.

Circability brings fun, movement, and connection to everyone—kids, parents, grandparents, office workers, tourists, and more! This free event invites you to try circus skills,
play, and maybe even show off a new trick.

No experience? No problem! Our skilled tutor and world-famous juggler, Mark Williams, will provide all the props and adapt activities for all skill levels. More than just fun, social circus creates a space for laughter, belonging, and cultural connection.

Circability delivers classes, workshops and community events for all ages, all abilities and all cultures, using social circus as a tool for developing personal confidence, physical and emotional literacy, and wellbeing, connecting people and sharing joy.

Our vision “All ages, all abilities, all cultures - better together” guides Circability in our quest to improve lives and impact social change through social circus arts. 

Mark Williams Bio: 

Mark “the catching machine” Williams is an award-winning juggler from Auckland, New Zealand.
With over 20 years of experience as a professional juggler, he has performed, taught, and competed all over the world.

In 2013 he won the supreme award in the inaugural New Zealand circus awards with duo The Blingling Bros. In 2016 the Blingling Bros placed third in the international jugglers’ associations World Stage Championships in Quebec City, Canada.
