The October Edge is a three-day festival of circus arts designed to make sure you progress in four disciplines that you choose. It's suitable for all levels of experience – it's ideal if you want to learn new arts and polish up your skills in your favourite arts. The 2026 dates are Friday 23rd October til Sunday 25th October.
Each day there are four 90-minute time slots. In each team slot, there are four arts to choose from. When you've chosen your arts for each slot, that's your schedule for the four days, you'll follow those paths all weekend. You'll train the same art at the same time each day, and by the end of the three days you'll have made noticeable progress!
A wide range of circus arts will be taught by a combination of Aerial Edge and guest instructors.
Snap up your spot today, so that you're ready when booking opens for the tracks on Saturday 10th October at 1pm.
