It is part of their five-year tour of Australia - so watch out for that signature red and yellow tent.

Regarded as one of Australia's best and largest travelling circuses, Hudsons offers 12 acts over two hours, ranging from death-defying daredevils to awe-inspiring animals.

One of the highlights of their show is a brand new act called 'The Triple Wheel of Destiny' - in fact, Maitland will be the first venue to see the exciting new addition.

As well as the new act, Hudsons offers all the usual fun of the circus - trapeze artists, animal acts, the hilarious Goldie the Clown and plenty more.

Come down to the Maitland Showground from Wednesday, September 11 to Sunday, September 22 to experience this event.

Shows are at 7pm on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, 4pm and 7pm Saturdays and 11am Sundays with an extra act at 2pm on the 15th.

Admission is $15 for children and $25 for adults.
