Under their new big-top tent, Jon Weiss of CBS's Amazing Race welcomes audiences to an all-new show featuring some of the world's greatest circus performers, including trapeze artists, jugglers, acrobats, death-defying stunt performers and of course, lots of world-class clowns. Recently featured in the 20th Century Fox motion picture Water for Elephants, Circus Vargas is a classic American circus, dating back to 1969 and featuring a real big top tent.

This circus was very nice. the entire tent was foggy inside because the tent is so big. there were no animals but the acts were fun for the whole family. it was a bit loud from the planes flying overhead and was cold out. otherwise... super fun!

Please mention that the low price ticket $12.50 is General Admission. No seat assignment. Bleacher benches, very narrow and very hard. This is a small Circus Venue. Kids were able to go into the arena, Great! Amazing motorcycle program. I only gave three stars, because we had seen other performances with larger Circus Companies and felt that we were missing the animal shows, which is not available at Circus Vargas. There is an intermission, so don't leave. It did get better in the second half.
