I love the circus and this year’s show is electrifying! Fully Charged, the all-new surge of circus entertainment from Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey where megawatts of thrills explode off of the arena floor with breathtaking dare-devilry, superhuman stunts and never-before-seen performances that energize Children Of All Ages.
Feld Entertainment, the producers of Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey Circus are clients of mine, so I had the pleasure of seeing the show a few months back. My favorite are still the elephants, but I loved the guys on the regular stilts and the neon glowing bounce stilts. I know my children will love the human fuse who shoots out of a cannon on fire and the Turbines of Terror.
One of my favorite parts of going to the circus is the All Access Power Up Pre-show. One hour before show time, guests are allowed on the floor to try on costumes, get up close with animals and performers. If you’re lucky, you might become part of the pre-show. We always grab a few clown noses and pose for a photo with one of the clowns before taking our seats.

My favorite part of the circus has always been the high wire and trapeze acts.
last time we went to the circus my son was about 4 and midway thru the show he said “mommy where are the brothers?” – I said “what brothers?” to which he responded, “the ringling brothers.”

I love the acrobats the best!
My favorite memory of the circus is when I had the pleasure of chaperoning the kindergarten class that I student taught on a school wide field trip to the circus. The looks on the kids faces about everything that was happening, was better than the actual show. I hope to be able to take my son and have a similar experience.
My favorite part of the Circus is the pre-show visit with the performers. We took my daughter a few years ago, and that is what she remembers most.

I really want to take my six year old to the circus as a surprise. she has improved greatly in school and I want to reward for her all her efforts. She would be just thrilled about going to the circus.
