‘COME ALIVE!’ The Greatest Showman Circus Spectacular has confirmed its extension until February 2026, as it continues its phenomenally successful run since opening at the Empress Museum, Earls Court in October 2024. Pre-sale tickets will be released today (15 May) at 12pm, with general sale opening at 12pm on 16 May on the ‘COME ALIVE!’ website. This news comes as the cast of 'COME ALIVE!’ join presenters Ant and Dec and the Britain’s Got Talent judging team this Sunday, 18 May at 7pm for an exclusive performance to open the show.
Speaking about the extension, ‘COME ALIVE!’ Executive Producer Chip Seelig of The Seelig Group said: “Reception to the show has been incredible and the atmosphere in the big top each night is electric thanks to the energy our audience and cast have brought to the Empress Museum. Our show offers complete escapism as soon as you step inside the venue - it’s like nothing else in London right now and it’s continuing to redefine what live entertainment can look like.”
“We’re always looking for ways to evolve the ‘COME ALIVE!’ experience even further and are working on exciting plans behind the scenes for a one-night-only Halloween event. More details will be released in the coming weeks and dedicated ‘COME ALIVE!’ fans will be the first to hear.”
Additional dates will include further accessible options with a BSL interpreted performance confirmed for Sunday 13 July 2025 with more to follow. The next scheduled Live Subtitled performance (provided by Stagetext) is planned for 25 October 2025.
