THE OVATION.
Premium Venue. Festival Ready.      
Built for Applause.

Welcome to The Ovation - Western Australia’s newest, most versatile Big Top performance venue. Proudly built right here in WA using world-class materials and engineering.

This is a fully certified, turn-key entertainment venue, created with the needs of local councils, festivals, and large-scale community events in mind.

Whether you’re staging a vibrant city celebration, a multi-day festival, or looking to revitalise your event’s main stage,
The Ovation transforms any open space into a show-stopping performance arena.

When your festival deserves more than just a stage and a few plastic chairs in the sun
- there’s The Ovation.

🌟 Why Choose The OVATION?

Because at any great festival, the venue matters just as much as the performers.

 The Ovation offers more than shade - it offers spectacle, safety, and the ability to bring your community together under one extraordinary roof.

we’ve designed
The Ovation with your exact thoughts in mind.

  • Sick of acts performing under glaring sun or makeshift shade cloth?

  • Don’t want to deal with half a dozen contractors?

We get it. That’s exactly why we built The Ovation.

💡 The Festival Problem-Solver

Local governments and event organisers face increasing challenges:

  • Sun safety requirements

  • Comfortable, fully accessible public spaces

  • Rising technical and infrastructure costs

  • Audience engagement under unpredictable weather

The Ovation solves all of these.

It provides an enclosed, professional-grade entertainment environment
that keeps audiences cool, seated, settled, happy and spending longer at your event.
It reduces the need for separate stage trusses, shade marquees, wet-weather plans, and
over-complicated tech setups.

With The Ovation, you can simplify your infrastructure while elevating the audience experience.

Western Australia’s Newest Circus Big Top:

The Ovation made its stunning debut as the headline venue for Alcoa’s Children’s Festival, presented by the City of Kwinana, hosting the entire day’s entertainment program - comfortably shading over 500 people at peak times per performance.

The Ovation is now a headliner venue at the annual Belmont Kidz Festival, which Ricochet Circus runs a full entertainment program and has over 9,000 attendees per day.

💬 "We know when we work with Ricochet Circus, we don't have to worry, it's always incredible and the community just loves it. They’re back every year!"

💬 “The audiences absolutely loved the show and were constantly laughing and getting involved.”

💬  “Ricochet was a standout performance, drawing large, appreciative audiences.”

💬  “We were thrilled with the enthusiasm and energy Ricochet Circus brought to over 24,000 patrons at this year’s event.”
 

We’re ready to work with your team to bring The Ovation to your community.
