SafeWork SA is satisfied that the key non-compliance issues at Circus Rio have been addressed and has lifted four of the nine prohibition notices put in place earlier this week.

Five prohibition notices remain in place but will not prevent the circus from opening tonight. These include prohibitions on working at heights and a ban on aerial performances such as the motorcycle show.

SafeWork SA will continue work with Circus Rio and the City of Holdfast Bay to monitor the outstanding issues.
