Circus Tickets

Prepare to be awed at a night of spectacle when you buy circus tickets at TicketSmarter. While the genre has branched out to encompass a number of different styles of performance. English equestrian Philip Astley is credited as a father of the modern circus, thanks to his creation of a variety show which included acrobats, jugglers, magic shows and a clown, among other performances. Ever since that event took place in the late 1700s, the art of the modern circus has flourished. The circus format that has come to be known as “traditional,” featuring a ringmaster who introduces a number of different choreographed acts, emerged during the 1800s. The circus is a wonderful family-friendly event that has been around a long time that everyone, kid or adult,  would enjoy attending. 

The popularity of circus acts as well as the diversity of what they offer has grown over the years. Just as a traditional-style circus act such as Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey may delight fans across the country, so too will an evening of highly choreographed and precise movement from a Cirque du Soleil troupe. Modern-day circuses may offer anything from old-school tightrope walking and rings of fire to interpretive shows inspired by elements such as air and water.
