Planet Circus OMG! Christmas Extravaganza

Planet Circus bring their OMG Christmas Extravaganza to Whisby Garden Centre on Sunday 13 December, a mid-December date that fits right into the city's Christmas run. It's a family-focused show, and the line-up is built around a few distinct acts: world-class acrobats, FMX riders, a monster truck and a strong man. The acrobats and FMX riders take up the bulk of the billing, and the show is billed as OMG Stunts 2026, with the stunts said to challenge the limits of gravity.

It's a broad mix of acts under one roof, so you've got the acrobats on one hand and the monster truck and strong man on the other. The acrobats and FMX riders provide the high-flying side of things, while the monster truck and strong man bring the heavy lifting. Between them, they cover a fair bit of ground, and the whole thing is put together as a single show rather than a series of separate acts.

Lincoln's Christmas programme is aimed squarely at families, and this sits alongside the usual festive staples. Throughout December, the city's venues host a range of Christmas-themed activities, from intimate performances at arts centres to the lively market stalls in the historic town squares, where you'll find people sipping mulled wine. There are also the traditional carol singing, crafting workshops, and ice-skating sessions at local arenas and dedicated seasonal venues, with Santa visits for the younger ones. This is one of the bigger, louder additions to that mix.

The show is on Sunday 13 December at 12:30 at Whisby Garden Centre, Whisby Road, Whisby, Lincoln, LN6 9BY. Tickets start from £12.00 and go up to £14.00.
