Ringling Brothers & Barnum & Bailey Present “Built to Amaze
For the past four years my family has not miss the Ringling Brothers and Barnum Bailey Circus. It seems like each year it is in July in between my and my son’s birthday. So this gives us something to do during our birthday month of celebration. We are looking forward to this years Built to Amaze show. Each year we have a good time and the show is always entertaining.
Well, if you did not know ticket sales for the show began, June 9, 2013. I know we are in for a treat because this year the show will include the following:
Ringmaster Andre McClain takes the Ringling Bros.® reins accompanied by his horse Comanche, to lead his funny and mischievous circus supervisors to construct a fantastic design of heart-pounding and wondrous performances sure to amaze and thrill audiences. With more than 110 of the world’s best artists & athletes representing 17 countries along with 95 exotic and domestic animals assembled together, Built to Amaze! is highlighted by several unique acts this year including:
Nine-time international award-winning comedic animal presenting duo Alex and Irina Emelin of Russia introduce their uniquely-designed brand of magic and humor with their remarkable trained animals including poodles, ferrets, rabbits, snakes and more!
The Trampoline Tower Tumblers, a troupe of ten competitive aerial athletes from the Ukraine who launch themselves from trampolines to scale, repel and pass through a three-story high translucent tower.
The popular King Charles Troupe hailing from New York City brings one-wheeled excitement to the ring with a spirited and comedic basketball competition featuring ten whirling unicyclists.
In addition, the show features the electrifying high-wire acrobats, daredevil stunts on The Steel Vortex, the youngest female Human Cannonball, remarkable hand-balancing duos, the always hilarious Clown Alley…and of course no Ringling Bros. circus experience would be complete without our four-legged star performers including the majestic Bengal tigers presented by the charismatic “Taba” and a fun-filled Asian elephant dance party.

We saw the circus with my daughter two years ago and she loved it! So much to see and do!
Love the circus!
I haven't been to a Ringling Bros circus since I was a kid. We do go to the Shrine circus sometimes. This would be FUN!
LOOVE the circus!! It's always been a dream of mine to be the tight rope walker 😛
My son would totally love to go. He's never been and I know that he would be impressed.
I haven't been in a long long time! I used to love the circus as a kid!
I loved the circus as a kid. I can’t wait until both of my kids are old enough to appreciate it.
My kids love Barnum and Bailey. Its the only one they will go too. We have been to the Shriners circus but its not the same!
