“Bringing circus and the best of music together all under one rook, or tent as it were. It was to put it simply, a masterstroke ”

"Year 2 of the Circus was spectacular! 3 days of great music across a wide variety of genres gave festival-goers the chance to see some blockbuster headliners on the main stage, but also to see new and emerging artists on 2 additional stages. Add to that the spectacular feats of the circus performers, and this is a perfect event for the grown-up festival veteran or families closing out the school holidays in style."

"Rock N Roll Circus was a great event to play at and a great day out for our fans, mixing the festival experience with the circus was different but brilliant"

"There is one surefire way to win the hearts of Sheffielders as a newcomer and that's to highlight just how good the things we produce are. Rock N Roll Circus is looking to tap into that this summer by putting together a festival lineup that showcases loud and proud, the breadth and depth of talent hailing from our sweet city!

“This was just what Sheffield needed. It's been a difficult time for people and this event put the smiles firmly back on everyone's faces. A superb line-up, awesome facilities and the media team was made to feel so welcome. It even had a circus!”

“The tent was full of love at Rock N Roll Circus. So much fun... best crowd this year!

“This weekend has made me want to run away and join the circus. The combination of music and performers made for a captivating mix, it had eyes and ears transfixed from start to end. To have a fledgling event come to Sheffield and be so supportive of its music community and respectful of its heritage is nothing but a good thing and testament to the nature of the great team who have delivered it. Roll up and roll on for next year!”

“An electrifying, inclusive experience designed for everyone to enjoy.
Rock N Roll Circus Sheffield captured the heart and soul of Sheffield and we all can't wait for the next one.”

“From the beginning of the event, it was clear how much work had gone into the festival's design, catering to a range of age groups and keeping everyone occupied. Rock N Roll Circus’ inaugural Sheffield bow proved to be a fantastic and diverse weekend that fitted perfectly at Don Valley.”
