Street entertainers Hakuna Matata are set to offer an experience to remember at the Parade area in Kilkenny City today (Saturday), as part of Yulefest.

The street-circus act will be performing free shows for crowds at 11am, 2pm and 5pm.

Hakuna Matata offer a 30 minute high energy, high skill acrobatics show, enjoyed by both children and adults alike.

Often defying belief but guaranteeing good humour these acrobats perform mind-boggling manoeuvres and unbelievable acrobatics with broad grins.

The group have toured their show all around Ireland and Europe to audiences' delight. 

Watch the lads as they perform amazing balances on the bench, handstands, push-ups and much more!

Whether it is sideways, upside down or stacked on top, their human pyramids will change you perception of gravity!

Skipping in a handstand... sounds impossible? Doing a back flip while skipping... sounds impossible? Not for Hakuna Matata!
