Circus & Street Performance in Coventry
Coventry's own circus offer is really two venues doing different jobs. Warwick Arts Centre has free family art sessions and storytelling for babies, plus a proper café for when everyone needs a sit down. Coventry Building Society Arena is the one for the big touring circus and street performance shows, with parking, food and step-free access all sorted. For toddlers, Warwick Arts Centre's storytelling sessions are the gentler start, and they cost nothing. If your children want to have a go rather than just watch, West Midlands Circus Centre & RoguePlay Theatre in Birmingham runs kids' circus and aerial classes with actual trapeze-style skills. Crescent Theatre, also in Birmingham, does relaxed performances from £13 for families who need a calmer show, and Curve Theatre in Leicester has toddler workshops from £2 alongside free monthly family sessions, both longer trips out but worth it for the right occasion.
