    Loving the circus shows this year!

    I've been to see two Fringe circus shows here this year, and both have been excellent. I love this part of the Fringe because it feels a lot calmer than the other central areas. A colourful, easy to navigate space with smooth, wide walkways and various seats and tables.

    Fringe review

    The name of the show is all the fun described as a family friendly circus staff were very helpful and welcoming I am in a wheelchair they let me in first so I could choose were I wanted to sit a small venue 3 rows each row was down quite a big step I sat on middle row one of the staff helped me to get down the step The show involves 3 men and one female costumes was very basic all dressed in white feel it would have been alot better if they had dressed as clowns as all the fun is described as a circus I was expecting clowns too all the fun involves alot of movement round the stage while balancing plastic is cones with a few sound affects babies are welcome in the arena if they can sit on knee of parents I was very disappointed with this show felt they could have made the show alot more entertaining bigger variety of acts i wouldn't recommend this show tickets are 10 - 12 pounds they may do family tickets I would expect to see this basic kind of show in free fringe venue Thanks very much to Edinburgh fringe for free ticket so I could review a show

    There is ramped access throughout the site and into both performance venues. As the festival takes place in a park, some areas of the site are on grass so please ask a member of staff if you require any assistance to access these areas. There is solid flooring between all key areas of the site including the venues, toilets and bar. The Lafayette has raked seating with the front 2 rows at floor level. The Beauty is fully accessible apart from the booths which are accessed via 2 steps. In both venues, seating can be removed to accommodate manual and powered wheelchairs. Please enquire with the box office if you have any questions about different sections of seating. The box office counter has a dropped window to facilitate access. The bar also has a low-level section of the counter. The food concessions do not have a low-level counter section; however staff are more than happy to come out from behind the counter to take your order. There is a range of toilet facilities including all-gender toilets, an accessible toilet and baby-changing facilities. Service dogs are welcomed everywhere and water bowls can be provided if required. A large print version of menus for the bar and food concessions are available.
    Seating at regular intervals
