The team behind the city’s Circo brand has been welcomed with record demand for its new concept that is set to be launched next year.

Just minutes after the ticket line officially opened, more than 400 Circo supporters secured bookings for the venue’s new ‘dinner show with a difference’, which will take place in its new Seel Street home in early 2017.

Owner Jason McNeill said: “2017 looks to be a very exciting year for everyone that is involved in the development and transition. We’ve been overwhelmed with the interest that we have received from both new and familiar faces since we opened our phone lines for bookings. The support from our lasting legacy is what spurred us on in wanting to evolve the Circo experience to make it fresh, novel and something like never before.”

The new venue, which has a capacity of 250 seated and an impressive 1000 standing, will be unveiled early next year and will feature two dinner shows a week at 7pm, with doors opening for a nightclub with a difference at 11pm. There will also be monthly live lounges, in-house interactive gameshows, and cabaret Sunday afternoons with some of the North West’s best themed acts.

Jason added: “With 2017 just around the corner, it’s not long until the next generation of entertainment and events will be revealed. Whether guests have formerly experienced our original concept or are yet to be enthralled by what we’ve got in store, nothing will ever be the same again. Watch this space for never ever ending entertainment…”
