Interested in a circus tent ... just a single ring ... maybe 75 feet wide.


Yeah, it's come to that.

The Hiccup Circus has been going on for quite awhile here on the Big Island ... it is a great thing for the local kids ... Graham Ellis started it in Belly Acres (a juggling co-op) years ago ... problem is: no place to perform (unless we rent a spot and make a stage) ... Graham has secured funding for his "SPACE" pavilion but it'll be awhile before it's completed.

I have a suitable piece of land and want to give the kids a place to practice and perform...

That's a big purchase. Perhaps leasing one may be easier. Are you looking for bleachers and all? Are you going to invite the public? There may be 2 or 3 here in Aust that no longer meet the standards of a touring act but may work for you.

On the other hand, maybe look in China. You might be able to get something made to your specs at a reasonable price. Pieter Post could probably help you find out what might be available in Europe.

I guess it boils down to needs and budget.
