Once again, we are delighted to welcome back the ever-popular Nick Spellman and his entourage of furry, slippery and feathered friends. Nick will be in the Amphitheatre at the Waterside Centre on Friday, 2nd April, Monday 5th April and Thursday 8th April. Each day, performances will be held at 12.00pm, 1.00pm, 2.00pm & 3.00pm.
Circus Workshops over Easter & Dream Ponies over Easter
Our Circus Workshops are always popular with younger visitors and members providing a ‘hands on’ experience! Plate spinning, stilt walking and face painting are just a few of the activities available. Circus shows are presented on 4th, 9th and 12th April between 12.00 and 4.00pm. Following the enormous success of their first visit to Conkers last year, we are delighted to be welcoming back those adorable, chubby, ‘Dream Ponies’ which were so popular with our visitors last year. They will offer short rides throughout the holiday, suitable for our smaller visitors. On Wednesday 7th and 14th April between 10.00 am and 4.00pm.
