There is entertainment at every angle:

Prepare for thrills as the Double Wheel of Destiny returns. Daredevils leap, flip, and glance 30 feet in the air atop two massive rotating wheels.

Trapeze swings soaring through the air up above with the artist’s landing jaw dropping somersaults off teeter-totters.

Elevate your thrills to new heights with the Flying Cáceres in high-speed spectacles.

Cuddle up and watch Bailey Circuit, the robo puppy who will surely bring some squeals of delight.

Look up to the sky and catch Skyler flying across the arena as the human rocket.

Entertainment all around with 360 degrees of non-stop acrobatics.

The Acro-Salsa troupe from Colombia will ignite the stage with high energy acrobatics and dance.
