FROM the producers of the some of the world's finest circuses, the big top is coming to Weymouth.

The Continental Circus Berlin will take up residence at Lodmoor Country Park from 25 to 30 July, as part of its European tour.

A one-of-a-kind performance, the circus merges classic acts with musical numbers and youthful energy, featuring performers from all over the world.

Clown Angelo will guide audiences through an amazing array of acts, from high wire walkers and aerialists to whirlwind jugglers and motorbikes performing the globe of steel. The most gravity-defying act ever completed, motorcyclists will zip around inside a steel sphere at a speed of 70mph, experiencing G-force similar to that of an astronaut.

Housed in a climate controlled big top, Continental Circus Berlin promises a night to remember.
