Mooky & Mr Boo are Sensational - 2 hours of Creativity, Laughter & Talent! - Yesterday I visited The Tower Circus for the first time - I am 25 and was not expecting it to blow me away like it did.
Mooky and Mr Boo are generational talents, their bond is hilarious and their act is something that couldn't be easily replicated. They captivated the audience and had me belly laughing from start to finish.
The rest of the acts were incredible:
The Dancers looked beautiful, their outfits and dances were perfect - i loved how they danced between acts.
Mooky's painting segment was breathtaking and very emotional.
The Kenyan dancers / Limbo performers were energising and SO MUCH FUN!!
The Laser show was out of this world and the Motorbikes - WOW!!! Jaw-dropping and terrifying.
A truly worthwhile visit :) Please ignore other reviews, the Circus might "not be what it used to be" with animal performances (As per some other reviews), but the heritage, legacy and talent 100% still stand and it is definitely worth visiting.
Cannot wait to return and take my children along!

Great show! - Excellent show that to be honest was much better than we expected!
The acts we saw were very professional and entertaining. The motorbikes were awesome!
We sat by the live band and to be honest it was a bit too loud and I left with ringing ears! The few children close by were covering their ears quite a bit. That said the show was definitely value for money when booked alongside some other attractions in a Merlin package.

Good clean family fun - I bought tickets for the circus at the request of my teenage daughter as a package with the tower. I had seen the circus many (30) years ago, but had no memory, so I held an open mind.
It started off very slap stick, cheap laughs and like an episode of CBeebies. I was concerned but things then just got better. The script improved, the acts were in some cases jaw-dropping, and there's a lot of variety, meaning you get what you expect and then many more things you didnt. There's certainly no repetition.
Great to see such a long running clean family fun event so well supported. Something for all ages. Don't miss it.

Greatest Show Awesome Experience - Don't ever listen to haters I did and nearly didn't go. My wife and daughter who is 7 and autistic and myself went on a bleak stormy Thursday packed house. One word Awesome so undersold to the public the motorbike riders inside a small metal cage was awesome some talent, mooky is funny without trying the Caribbean act with the limbo dancing was funky and kept you clapping. The lady who juggled at the start act kept dropping large baton was thinking she not good but when she started juggling with both feet and hands she dropped nothing was excellent very talented loved the Lazer show at end overall one of the best two hours i have had in years recommend was worth every penny total difference to last year 5 🤩

Must see - My wife and I have been coming to Blackpool on and off for over 30 years and this was the first time we have visited the tower. We brought our 6 & 8 year old grandchildren and the circus was the highlight of the trip. The quality and skill of the acts was amazing. Hosted by the the very funny Mooky & Boo, the show had a great variety of acts and was delivered at high pace to keep the audience enthralled and engaged. Thank you to everyone involved in making this show happen, it's very clear that the whole team take great pride in delivering best-in-class entertainment.

Good overall, but could be better - The show was good but less so than the one we saw two years ago. This year’s show was not nearly so packed and seemed to have been slimmed down quite a bit. The humour of Mooky and Mr Boo was also weak, lacking in energy and conviction, which was not helped by the poor sound quality. I have to say though that the acrobatic acts and stunt riders we saw were simply amazing and gave us a good afternoons entertainment. The water feature at the end has changed too - it used to be a spectacular tableau show, now it’s a laser show - stunning but it actually didn’t need the ring to be filled with water at all, which was strange. Improvements needed. But as I say still a good show and well worth seeing, but Mooky and Mr Boo really need to up their game!

Ok but not worth the money. - As a family been going to this circus for years, however, we were a little disappointed yesterday. It felt like acts were missing & the dancers were filling in! We saw a juggler, acrobats, motor cyclists & a girl doing acrobats on chains. The clowns & the dancers filled in between every act drawing out the show as there were no other performers. Same few performers all the way through interchanging, they even sold the toys at the interval! Good, but definitely not worth the money charged!

Ok in places, not a traditional circus and too loud - Circus fun in places but not really your traditional circus show. Too many dance numbers. Not enough clowns or trapeze acts. Motorbikes were amazing!
Massively overly amplified sound system - way way too loud - even wearing earplugs and hands over it was still too loud.
