Cirque Essentials
6.4 metre freestanding aerial rig assembled outdoors by the ocean with a performer on gold silks

Paradise Aerials · Melbourne & surrounds

Circus equipment hire,
rigged by a professional.

A 6.4 m freestanding aerial rig and a 40 mm brass X-Stage Lite — for photo shoots, film, events, hens parties and backyard training blocks. Delivered and rigged, or dry hire if you know what you're doing.

Wet hire

We deliver, rig, safety-check and pack down. You get a professionally installed setup and zero guesswork. Most bookings choose this.

Dry hire

Pick up, rig it yourself, drop it back. For experienced riggers and studios who have done this before — we'll talk it through before confirming.

Add a performer

The rig can come with Veronica on it — aerial or pole performance for events, shoots and productions. Ask when you enquire.

Exact pricing depends on distance, surface and dates — every quote is confirmed in writing before you pay anything.

First time hiring? Here's the whole process

From enquiry to event day.

  1. Send the basics

    Date, suburb, and what you're planning — a shoot, a party, a festival, a training block. If you know your surface (grass, concrete, indoors) and ceiling height, include it.

  2. Get a firm quote

    You'll hear back with availability and a written quote, usually the same day. Price depends on distance, surface and dates — nothing is payable until the quote is confirmed in writing.

  3. Lock it in

    Confirm the quote and the date is yours. For wet hire we schedule delivery and rigging around your event; for dry hire we arrange collection and walk through the kit.

  4. Event day

    Wet hire: the rig or stage arrives, gets professionally installed and safety-checked before anyone leaves the ground, and packed down afterwards. You run your event; the equipment is handled.

Check a date

Tell us the date, the location and what you're planning — we'll come back with availability and a firm quote, usually same day.
