An exhilarating menagerie of illuminated Carnival will return to the Tower Ballroom for an electrifying static showcase of music, puppetry and dance. Internationally recognised Carnival performers will present a showstopper over 30 minutes, bringing a diverse melting pot of Carnival magic.
From giant hand-crafted puppets to stunning illuminated dancers, there will be something for all the family.
LARGER THAN LIFE PUPPETS
Meet Jack Frost and his larger than life friends as they take to the stage and say hello. You never know if you are lucky you might just be able to bag yourself a selfie with your new giant friends.
FIRE BREATHING BEASTS
Gasp and wonder at their fiery release. This show features striking puppets and exciting pyrotechnics, mixed with a hypnotic performance. With sweeping wings and scorched metal, Toni the Fire Bat is a visitor from an ancient, magical past, awoken from the fiery belly of the Earth to fight Bessemer, the Fire-Breathing Dragon.
CARNIVAL MAGIC
Our carnival performers and stilt walking musicians will spring to life and fill the stage with beautiful dancers in giant illuminated dresses, accompanied by red-hot carnival drummers.
THE GRAND FINALE
The show will crescendo with a full cast presentation of all puppets and performers, encouraging audiences to take to the dance floor and boogie to our Global Grooves with friends old and new.
