Alright friends…. no not miss this opportunity – Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey® Presents Circus Out of this World.
Last night the family and I made it to one of the last circus events by Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey®. I was truly grateful for the opportunity to experience this event with my kids. It is something I remember growing up and knowing that they are on their farewell tour, I wanted to get one last look. The kids were mesmerized with all the acts and animals. Honestly, I was too – how do they do all these tricks and acts? It is mind blowing!

To me the most amazing act was the motorcycles in the circular cage. I think my husband was most terrified of seeing the lions and tigers in the cage. Also incredible were the trapeze artists and it was really cool to watch the basket “ballers” on their unicycles.
I enjoyed that the kids talked about it the next day. My daughter, while reminiscing, wrote down all the animals she saw – so here is her list! A kangaroo, lions, tigers, a leopard, horses, pigs, goats, donkeys, and more. As an adult, I really loved watching the relationships the performers had. The animal trainer was a 3rd generation lion tamer. You could see how much he loved his animals. You could see as well the years of discipline the trapeze family had as well as the motorcycle drivers. You wouldn’t believe the tricks some of the acrobats could do on these horses! I was talking to my husband on the way home, I have no idea what can compare to this show. I am truly sad to see it go as there isn’t anything out there that is the same!
In Out Of This World, audiences will be riveted by an interactive, action-packed storyline filled with space-age family fun and technology, which deepens their connection to the performers. Through the lens of a magic telescope capable of discovering the most spectacular circus stars in the galaxy, they will join the Circus Space Fleet on a heroic mission of good versus evil to bring performers back to Earth, traveling to interstellar worlds of sand, water, fire and ice.
For the first time, the show features thrill skaters in addition to unbelievable performances by gravity-defying acrobats, majestic animals and hilarious clowns. Imaginations will run wild throughout the nonstop display of artistic athleticism, with acts seamlessly transitioning from floor to air to ice, a feat never before done in Ringling Bros.
