The circus will be in town next week, with shows on five days.

Promoter Tony Hopkins, who is celebrating 40 years of promoting his own circus shows, will bringing his 2023 production of Circus Montini to Ashby.

It will set up on the Bath Grounds from Wednesday, September 27 and will run until Sunday, October 1.

Since the start of his career in 1983, Yorkshireman Tony has promoted and toured family favourites such as Chipperfields Circus, Gerry Cottle's Circus, the Netherlands National Circus, Billy Smart's Circus, Circus Fiesta.

All of which leave behind a good name for the quality of performance, and now he is touring in 2023 with Circus Montini.

A deliberately downsized show has been created to be able to take it to places that do not often see a circus - but without reducing the quality or quantity of the acts or production.

Circus Montini brings spectacular entertainment to towns and cities all over the country.
