Circus / New Years Eve
‘A multi-sensory audio-visual car wash for the soul’
Legendary Bristol circus collective the Invisible Circus have been behind some unique, extraordinary, and memorable nights over the years, from their seminal Carnyville nights at The Island, to 2019’s Futur Ville at Ashton Court; and numerous performances at Boomtown Fair and Glastonbury Festival along the way.
In the last five years, they’ve found their home at The Loco Klub, which has played host to numerous Invisible Circus shows including Tunnel of Love, Mad Hatter’s Ball, The Feast of Fools, Halloween Spook Show, The Renegade Fabulon, Necropolis – City of the Dead, and Circo Bizerko.

And with everyone dialling up the costumes and characters to 11, you never quite know who is performing, and who is not.
This New Year’s Eve, The Invisible Circus are back at The Loco Klub to host YOUTOPIA, which promises to be ‘a juxtaposition of the dystopian underworld at the World’s UnFair’.
