The Main Event

Take to the skies with a 2 Hour Flying Trapeze Adventure in the Cotswolds, an exhilarating experience that makes an unforgettable gift for thrill seekers, families, and anyone ready to try something truly different. Set against the stunning backdrop of the countryside, this outdoor adventure combines adrenaline and plenty of laughter in one incredible session.

Perfect for individuals or small groups of up to four people, this shared experience welcomes participants aged eight and above. It is suitable for complete beginners as well as those looking to challenge themselves, with expert instructors guiding every step of the way. As the only full size bar-to-bar outdoor flying trapeze rig in Britain, this is a rare opportunity to try a genuine circus style activity in a safe and supportive environment.

The experience begins with ground instruction and a professional demonstration, giving a clear understanding of the techniques involved. Once fitted with a secure safety harness, participants climb the ladder and step onto the platform, where anticipation builds with every second. With guidance from below, take hold of the trapeze bar and step off into the air.

As the swing begins, timing and rhythm come into play. Learning to “beat” the body in sync with the movement helps build momentum, and for those ready to push further, there is the chance to release and attempt a bar to bar catch. Each turn ends with a safe and satisfying drop into the net below, with instructors controlling safety lines throughout.

Set outdoors in the fresh air, this experience brings together excitement and natural surroundings, though it remains weather dependant to ensure safety. Whether bought as a bold gift or a shared adventure, this flying trapeze session promises unforgettable moments, new skills and a serious sense of achievement.

FAQs

What should I wear?

Close fitting clothing that covers your knees and doesn't restrict your movement. Yoga style clothing is ideal. This is an outdoors experience and it can be chilly, or sunny so dress appropriately for the conditions. You will be asked to take your shoes off, so spare socks are a good idea as your feet may get wet.

What happens in bad weather?

If the weather is bad the session will be cancelled. The supplier will try their best to give you advance notice, but this may not always be possible if the forecast shifts throughout the day. If your session is cancelled please contact the supplier directly to rebook.

What should I expect on my first lesson?

You will be given ground instruction and shown a demonstration. After being fitted with a safety harness, you will be clipped onto a safety line to climb the ladder. Once on the platform, you will be helped to take the trapeze bar and leave the platform. 

When swinging, you will 'beat' your body in time with the motion of the trapeze. If you do this well enough you will be asked to let go of one bar and attempt to 'fly' to the next. At the end of each turn you will drop to the net, your safety will be ensured by the instructor controlling your safety lines from the ground.

Do you allow spectators?

Absolutely, get them to bring the camera! Your well behaved dogs are also welcome.

Who can have a try?
