What to expect from Kingdom of Kong
This is no ordinary circus show. Kingdom of Kong is the UK debut of Big Kid Circus’s massive animatronic gorilla – and it’s just the start. The 2025 tour brings together an elite global cast of performers from Mexico, Tanzania, Brazil and Ethiopia in a fast-paced, family-friendly experience.


Alongside the awe-inspiring King Kong, you’ll see daredevils taking on the gravity-defying Wheel of Death, motorbikes racing inside the high-speed Globe of Death, and performers juggling, balancing and soaring across the highwire. Throw in the classic clown acts that get the whole tent laughing, and you’ve got a proper big top blockbuster.
