Accessible and inclusive live music, circus acts, comedy and much more is coming to Plymouth today and tomorrow.

The Theatre Royal is hosting their iconic Funky Llama Festival at Central Park.

The event is programmed by the company's Steering Group, aiming to celebrate the creative talents of disabled adults.

There's a whole host of fun-filled activities taking place, including the latest show from Extraordinary Bodies - the UK's leading disabled and non-disabled circus company and partnership between Diverse City and Cirque Bijou.

They will be bringing their performance 'Human' to the city, which will take place in the Big Top Tent.

Victoria Whelan, Engagement Manager at Theatre Royal Plymouth said: "Funky Llama is one of TRP’s flagship community projects and after the events of the last year we are so excited to be able to bring people back together to celebrate one another.

"Complete with a big top in the heart of the city at Central Park, the vision for this event has been created by our differently abled steering group who have worked incredibly hard to make this event a reality for 2021."
