Brent Knoll circus ends early as Covid tier 4 restrictions prevent spectator gatherings The circus at Brent Knoll’s Sanders Garden Centre has had to finish early due to Tier 4 Covid restrictions coming into force. Circus Funtasia has brought the ‘The Great Christmas Circus’ to the garden centre, with extra safety measures in place to keep spectators safe. It had intended to hold its final performance today (January 3rd) but instead had to end the shows on December 30th due to the Tier 4 restrictions coming into force on New Year’s Eve, banning spectator events. One of the organisers, Antonio Candela, told Burnham-On-Sea.com: “Our shows were able to go ahead when we were in Tier 3 but the introduction of Tier 4 stopped everything.”
