Spiral Circus is the name of the first live album by British psychedelic rock/progressive rock band Porcupine Tree from their first tour ever. The album was recorded in three different locations of England during December, 1993. The first half of the album was taken from the shows in the BBC and Borderline (London), and the second half from The Nag's Head (High Wycombe).

Spiral Circus was released in 1994 on cassette only. It was then reissued on vinyl in 1997 limited to 500 copies. Both editions are deleted at the present.[1]
