Cirque Du Sleigh

Forget the traditional Christmas show – this one's strictly for the naughty list! Cirque Du Sleigh is bringing a cheeky, adults-only circus spectacular to Brisbane Powerhouse from 25 November to 23 December 2026.

Presented by award-winning Australian circus company Head First Acrobats, this four-week festive season promises jaw-dropping aerial acts, death-defying acrobatics, outrageous comedy and plenty of Christmas mischief.

Taking over the Augathella Spiegeltent at its new home at Brisbane Powerhouse, expect a night of high-flying stunts, glitter, cheeky surprises and performers who are definitely not on Santa's nice list.

Perfect for a festive date night, Friendmas celebration or an alternative end-of-year party, Cirque Du Sleigh is a fast, funny and decidedly naughty Christmas spectacular that swaps traditional carols for cabaret, circus and a whole lot of mischief.

Performed by Head First Acrobats in association with Tom Oliver Productions, the show will also feature a rotating lineup of guest stars throughout the season. Tickets start from $49–$69, with limited performances across the four-week run.
