Street Entertainment in Ripon
Walkabout acts, crazy characters, circus and clowning bring the streets and open spaces of Ripon to life throughout the day. Professional acts come together with community performers including Ripon City Morris Dancers, the All for One Choir and Ripon Youth Theatre. Performances will be staged at Ripon Market Place, Minster Gardens (in front of the Courthouse Museum), in Ripon Arcade and linking streets around the city. Watch out for giant dodos, juggling pirates, pesky dragons and masked old ladies mingling with comic escapologists and a man inside a giant balloon! All events are free. Full running orders will be published in May.
