Our AGM Performance night is a celebration and we are doing it Circus-style Our Annual General Meeting might have chairs in rows, but it's not a 'suit and tie', 'minutes & lectern' kind of evening. At Roundabout, the AGM is part of our Tea & Circus End of Term performance night, where reporting back to our community happens under stage lights and sometimes mid air. In past years we have delivered the CEO report from a trapeze, had our Treasurer share the financials alongside

January saw us celebrate a mammoth nine years of Roundabout Circus. Nine years of classes, performances, friendships, growth and plenty of upside-down moments along the way. Thanks to everyone who came to discover what we do, and to our community who've been with us for all or part of our nine years, and helped us celebrate. Despite the weather, we had a wonderful day. Families, adults, curious first-timers and long-time circus friends moved through the studio all day. The ri

There’s something special about performing in a place that already feels like home. That’s exactly what it felt like for Roundabout Circus at the Love Lanes Festival in Wyong. Sarah from Roundabout Circus shares her experience with us. Love Lanes Festival is unlike any other event on the Central Coast. It celebrates community, connection, and one of our oldest suburbs by transforming the historic laneways between buildings into vibrant, living spaces filled with music, art, f

For the first time in 2025 we decided to make a new annual award and celebrate a student who represents the values we care about most. We chose a student who has been a strong presence in our community this year and has shown a lot of personal growth during this time . Our inaugural Student of the Year Award was given to Maisie Beaumont- Denison for 2025. Maisie began training at Roundabout when she was just six years old. Over the years she has grown not only in skill, but i

Welcome back, everyone! It feels like we blinked and suddenly everyone’s back at school, back at work and straight into the rhythm of the year. We’ve already hit the ground running at Roundabout, and I have to say, it’s shaping up to be another busy and exciting year. We kicked things off by celebrating our 9th birthday, which still feels slightly surreal. Nine years of building this community, watching students grow up in the studio and seeing circus become a regular part of

Fire & Flow is our quarterly community flow jam for teens and adults. Whether you spin fire, flow with LED, or you’re just starting, this is your chance to step into the circle and move with like-minded people. Held at our Gosford studio, Fire & Flow runs from 7:00 pm–9:30 pm and brings the community together for an evening of shared training and creative energy. It’s relaxed, welcoming and focused. All you need to do is bring your props, your ideas and your curiosity. If you

Looking for something fun, fresh and genuinely exciting to start the year? Our Discovery Pass  might just be the answer. Designed for new students, the Discovery Pass gives you unlimited access to our classes for 2–4 weeks, depending on age. That means you can come as often as you like during your pass period, explore different disciplines, meet our coaches and experience the full Roundabout vibe before committing long term. Rather than trying a single class and hoping it’s t

Hi Circus family and friends, As the year wraps up, I’ve finally had a quiet moment to think about what this year at Roundabout has really been. As our first full year in our new studio, It’s been big, busy, and genuinely beautiful. And it is all made possible by a lot of people showing up. Again and again. With care, energy and belief in what circus can do.  This year our Roundabout Circus team delivered more than 500 circus events and classes across the Central Coast. From

If you’ve ever watched one of our shows and felt that spark, the " I want to do that"  feeling, then this is your moment. Performance Troupe auditions are coming up, and we’re looking for dedicated young artists who are ready to take their circus journey further. Roundabout’s Performance Troupe members train twice a week, develop original acts, perform at community events, and help shape our major productions. It’s a place for students who love circus, love teamwork, and want

The end of the new year is so close, we can taste it. Well, we've got you covered with our Summer holiday program .  To get you started, we're offering you a few days of uninterrupted hours to finish your Christmas shopping (or catch your breath) with our Christmas Drop & Shop Circus Camps. Kids get a morning of circus fun and creativity, followed by a Christmas movie after lunch, and you get five hours to get things done before the big day. We’re running two Christmas camps:

January at Roundabout is packed to the rigging with circus fun. From 5–29 January, our studio becomes a hub of creativity, movement and joy, with something on almost every day of the week for kids, teens and adults. Our Youth Circus Camps  run half-day and full-day, giving kids aged 5–13 a chance to climb, balance, tumble, spin and explore in a supportive space. They’re on every Monday, Tuesday and Thursday, with sessions at 9–12:15 and 12:45–4 pm. Check out our weekly roll-u

If you’re looking for a gift that does more than sit under the tree, a Roundabout Circus gift voucher might be the perfect fit. Our classes help people of all ages - kids, teens and adults - build confidence, courage and community. Fundamental skills, real joy, and something meaningful to look forward to in the new year. Whether it’s someone’s first time climbing a silk, rediscovering movement as an adult, or joining one of our Neurosparkly-friendly classes, circus gives peop

At Roundabout, our students don’t just learn circus skills. They discover confidence, creativity and connection, and they find a place where they truly belong. This month’s Student Spotlight shines on Isabelle, one of our young adults whose courage and creativity recently helped bring Neverland  to life. Isabelle had been working on building a crocodile costume out of recycled materials and was going to perform as the puppet master of Nanna the dog and the crocodile character

Sometimes a project comes along that feels like circus without ever stepping inside the studio. Something brave, unexpected, playful, and built entirely on human connection. That’s exactly what’s arriving on the Central Coast this December. The Playful Plate is a tiny outdoor restaurant with nothing to eat and everything to feel. Created by Alicia Gonzalez and Gordon & Gonzalez and supported by Central Coast Council’s Creative Art Central program, it’s a gentle experiment in

There are many circus and flow arts festivals around Australia and the world. The closest to us is GLOWFEST , which has been running for five years now. And we're proud to say Roundabout has sponsored this incredible event since 2022. Several of our team teach, perform, rig and participate in the festival. This year, the GLOWFEST circus festival moved two hours closer to us, which meant more of our beautiful Roundabout Circus community could attend, including one of our stud

It's been a big few weeks at Roundabout! We’ve been in the thick of it, and I’m so proud of what our community has managed to pull together. Between shows, holiday workshops, events, and regular classes, we have created over 1000 smiles in October. Wowser! Neverland Weekend Recap We're just coming down from the high of our Neverland weekend . My favourite bit was watching everyone back each other through the chaos! There was a last-minute cast change, and a few health bugs ou

The week before our Neverland  circus show at our Gossy home was one of those wild, wonderful circus weeks where everything felt impossible, until it wasn’t. A few performers and crew got sick. One lead role had to be replaced while stage props were still being finished. And yet, this team made it happen. When Hook suddenly became an empty spot on the cast list, teen performer and team member Isabelle stepped up to the captain's quarters. Isabelle learned the entire role in l

Our November Roundabout Circus spotlight shines on Lana . Lana joined Roundabout as a young teen and has grown into a performer who lights up every stage. She’s curious, courageous, and full of heart. Everything we love to see in our community. At this year’s Bend the Air  aerial competition in Newcastle, Lana wowed the judges with her Puss in Boots  act, a playful, character-filled trapeze routine packed with storytelling and charm. Her coach, Hunnah, said Lana poured her he

Well, it's been a minute since our Performance Troupe took more than their juggling skills to the Canberra Circus Festival . But wow, did they learn, embracing what we represent at Roundabout—lots of curiosity, courage, and connection. Our troupe’s cups are overflowing after a week of workshops, mentoring and coaching from circus artists all over Australia. We swapped tricks, shared laughs, tried new skills and soaked up ideas. For some of our troupe, it was their first time
