"Spaghetti Circus is inspirational... a credit to all the creative souls who established this community circus, and those who have helped it flourish for so many years.” - Parent 

Spaghetti Circus is a leading youth circus and hub for the community – a creative and community incubator. Connection is at the heart of what we do.

Spaghetti’s greatest achievement is the development of creative kids and strong communities and has worked with 120,500 participants since 1992. Spaghetti Circus supports young people through our scholarship program for disadvantaged and committed young people offering more than 60 scholarships per annum (1500 since inception!).

"Spaghetti Circus allows young people to develop not only awesome circus skills but they also support you to find a way to create exciting work. Its immense focus on family and community make it different to every other circus in Australia.” - Rhianon Cave-Walker, Spaghetti Alumni 

WHERE WILL THE FUNDS GO?

Our success is largely dependent on philanthropic funding, and we need your support. Your generous donation will allow us to run vital programs that empower young regional people to learn to fly (with confidence) including:

Scholarships program: We support between 30-60 scholarships a year to support families doing it tough, to access subsidised places in our circus school. We have supported 1500 scholarships since inception!

Outreach Program: Supports key community engagement projects such as our Intergenerational Tour, which sees our kids performing to aged care facilities and preschools, our local school’s program to build community, and the hundreds of community gigs we do to support and spread joy for all the wonderful events in the region.

Artistic Program:  Supports the 2-year development cycle of creating an original youth-led performance work with our Performance Troupe and invited Guest Director’s. In 2024 - 2026 we will be working with all female company Yuck Circus to develop our new work from concept to completion.
