Herta Fossett honoured with special award

Fossett’s Circus matriarch Herta received the Circus Friends Association award from its vice president, Steve Chapman, in recognition of the work the 85-year-old has done, along with her family, to build their name and create fun and enjoyment for children for 117 years.
Up to 5,000 family members, fans in Ireland and across Europe, and members of some of the biggest circuses in the world gathered over the weekend at Fossett’s Big Top at Lucan Sarsfields GAA Grounds, just 100m from the family home, to show their appreciation to Herta.
