The circus’ founder and director Martin ‘Zippo’ Burton said: “People often ask us how the show is organised, as well as where our wonderful horses live and how they’re trained and transported.
“So we’re opening the doors and welcoming everyone in for a free look-round.
“Circus staff will be on hand to answer questions about every aspect.
