A circus that has been described as “Vegas on wheels” returns to Richmond this Easter.
From Monday, April 4 until Monday April 18, at the Old Deer Park, Circus Vegas intends to celebrate the vibrant, artistic, and awe-inspiring nature of the circus.
Sheltered inside a stars and stripes big top tent, Circus Vegas combines all the elements of circus with the “glitz, glamour and spectacle” of Las Vegas – organisers say.
With thrilling acts, scintillating costumes and the funniest of clowns, the show brings performers from all over the world to produce an evening of entertainment.
A husband and wife crossbow act will be performing with an “easter twist”, as Martti Peltonen plans to fire the bolt and smash it through an Easter egg - balanced upon the head of wife, Liina.
Guests can expect to be sat on the edge of their seat, whilst watching acts such as the Hula Hoop queen, Flying Trapeze, and more aerialists.
Circus Vegas is presented by an American ringmaster and superstar Mexican clown, Eddy.
Organisers say the UK was specifically chosen to host Circus Vegas because of its “diverse and cultural background”.
