On Saturday 7 August, head down to Jardine Crescent for Party on the Green, a FREE neighbourhood celebration for all the family.
For one afternoon only, the incredible world-class circus company Cirque Bijou will bring their dazzling performance to your doorstep. Renowned for pushing the boundaries and seeking out the new, Cirque Bijou stage the unexpected and extraordinary to create unforgettable and exquisitely-crafted shows. You’ll see the bizarre, the beautiful and the downright bonkers as their world-class aerialist, acrobatic and street theatre performances take the stage.
As well as Cirque Bijou, you’ll also encounter unexpected walkabout performances as you explore the park and enjoy some fantastic home-grown talent from Coventry. With walkabout performances including blue mime artists and Coventry-based Talking Birds, there’s something for all ages to enjoy.
Come and relax on the grass with a picnic, pick up some delicious street food, and bring all your family and friends for this incredible celebration on your doorstep. Come on down and party with us!
Tickets must be booked in advance for Cirque Bijou, who will perform four times throughout the day for one hour each. Tickets are free and can be booked above.
If you don’t get a ticket for Cirque Bijou, that’s okay - walk ups are encouraged on the day to come and enjoy the rest of the green space where you can bring a picnic and be entertained by an amazing line-up of performances.

We understand that government is intending to lift all restrictions on Covid from 19 Jul which is great for people wanting to enjoy Party on the Green, an outdoor event in our local parks. We also recognise that not all of our audiences might feel comfortable with that just yet. You may still see some of our staff wearing masks and you’ll be welcome to wear yours too. We also know that not everybody will feel okay about lifting restrictions on distancing, and so we thank you in advance for being mindful and respectful of others while you’re on site. For your safety and ours, we will be regularly testing our staff and performers and maintaining a good cleaning regime.
