Prepare to laugh, cry and be amazed by this year's Cabaret & Social Club stages, featuring a busy programme of new acts combined with the usual Fling favourites.

This year's Cabaret Stage line-up includes:

Lila la Scala - the Cabaret compere who has been at the helm of the UK & Europe's top variety and burlesque extravaganzas. She'll enthrall, enchant and seduce your ears as well as the eyes.

Annabelle Holland - the top female knife thrower in the UK and one of the only ones in the world. She has a wit as sharp as her knives and will make you laugh and terrified in equal measures.

Mahri & Leo - Amazing acrobatic duo who perform all over the world, stunning audiences with their beautiful and physical acrobatic feats. Half of the duo is one of the UK's only bottle walkers, and the other half can do surprising things with a hammer and a nail.

Daniel Gorski - a regular on the Australian lively cabaret, circus and festival scene. His passion for movement performance has seen him win multiple national and international awards.
