SEND John Lawson Circus
The award-winning John Lawson’s Circus will be hosting a circus performance for children with Special Educational Needs & Disabilities (SEND) and their families this May half term.
With an entirely human cast and lots of new acts, this enthralling show is a great family experience not to be missed!
The big top will have a lower capacity (half our usual capacity) and quieter music for each acts performance. There will be no flashing lights or strobes, no smoke or water however as part of the show the big top will be in darkness prior to the start of some of the acts. Please also note that the show usually features some gentle audience participation, with visitors closer to the front tending to be chosen for this!
We hope these adaptations will enable those families with SEND children to enjoy the show however, please make your own judgements based on your individual needs as to whether these measures make it more suitable for you.
Date & Time:
Wednesday 28th May
Show time 3:30pm
Each show lasts approximately 1 hour

What documentation do I require for an essential companion ticket?
- Please email us a copy of your Access Card including the +1 symbol to bookings@milletsfarmcentre.com before you book your tickets online.
- We will then send you a unique, single use, code to enter at the checkout that will discount one adult ticket to be free of charge.
- Unfortunately, we will not be able to provide a code if you cannot send the document. Please allow 72 hours to receive your code, especially if you make your request at the weekend, when we are at our busiest.
What is an Access Card?
- Designed to streamline the process of communicating your access needs, the Access Card translates your disability or impairment into easy-to-understand symbols.
- In addition to translating your needs into symbols, the Access Card serves as a recognised proof of your requirements, eliminating the need for repeated explanations to different events. The card not only supports your individual needs but also contributes to a broader movement towards better accessibility for all.
