Our circus professionals welcome you to a star-spangled spectrum of circus skills: acrobatics, clowning, unicycle, juggling, tight wire, stilts, balance and much more.



You'll feel the magic the moment you step inside our spectacular European Big Top Tents set in the hills of Vermont. It’s a kid’s dream come true!

Friendships form fast as we support each other to fly high above the ring and learn to take a pie in the face . . . on cue!
