THE Circus Berlin returned to Haydock this week for the first time in 10 years, bringing with it performers from all around the world.

Acts include seven strong spring-boarders, The Ikar Troupe, the Clown Nicolai, juggling and wire acts and Kung Fu displays.

However, if death defying stunts are more your thing, the Columbian dare devils, The Marinos and their wheel of death are sure to please.

The circus will be staying at the Haydock Park Racecourse car park until Sunday, April 17.

Performance times are 5pm and 7.45pm until Friday, and 2pm and 5pm on Saturday and Sunday.
