About this event

Australian circus company Circa brings Duck Pond to Brighton Dome Concert Hall this Christmas. The family show reimagines Swan Lake as circus, following a hapless prince, a beautiful swan and a gang of flipper-wearing ducks, with human towers, aerial acrobatics and comedy.

Performances run from Wednesday 23 to Monday 28 December 2026: 7.30pm on 23 December; 2pm and 5pm on 24 December; 2pm on 26 December; 11am and 2pm on 27 December; and 2pm and 7pm on 28 December. The 11am show on 27 December is a relaxed performance.

The show lasts about 1 hour 20 minutes with no interval and is recommended for ages 5+, with under-14s accompanied by an adult. Tickets are £12.50, £19.50, £27.50 and £31.50, and Brighton Dome members save £2 on full-price tickets.
