Tweedy’s Massive Circus will tour the UK in 2026 with a new show, The Big Number 2.

The show features Tweedy The Clown, who returns with collaborators Sam Goodburn and Charlie Bicknell. Tweedy, who has worked across circus, theatre, television and film, was awarded the British Empire Medal in the 2023 New Year Honours and has recently published a children’s book.

The production opens at Millets Farm in Frilford, Oxfordshire from 26 March to 4 April before continuing to Old Farm in Moreton‑in‑Marsh from 8 to 19 April, Dunkertons in Cheltenham from 23 April to 10 May, and Eastcourt Farm in Crudwell from 15 to 31 May.
