The American Icon has launched a spectacular nationwide tour that brings comedy, thrills and artistry to children of all ages. Families will be immersed in a 360-degree experience, bringing them into the action. Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey® The Greatest Show On Earth® is returning to Michigan with six performances at Little Caesars Arena from November 17-19, 2023.
Packed with explosive excitement, The Greatest Show On Earth begins and ends with a bang! Audiences will meet a cast of characters who will guide them through an interactive and immersive experience.
Clap along to this music-filled journey, bursting with catchy rhythms, beats, songs, and laughter that will have audiences singing along and dancing in their seats.
Children of all ages will encounter never-before-seen stunts, acrobatic displays, and comedic acts along the way.
Ringling Brothers has put together a globally diverse cast with 75 performers hailing from 18 countries including Argentina, Canada, Cuba, Ethiopia, Italy, Mongolia, Spain, Ukraine, and the United States will inspire audiences through a variety of unbelievable circus acts.
The reimagined experience is like no other. Stunts and comedy and music help tell a story as the audience is taken through The Ultimate Playground, a 360-degree modular performance area with colorful elements that bring a picture of a toy box come alive.
Then it transforms into a skatepark as bikes soar through the air during a high-adrenaline extreme
sports act. Featuring a group of BMX riders, a trial bike, and an extreme unicycle, these
riders perform stunts on a unique trampoline box constructed in the center of a take-off and
landing ramp, the only one of its kind. Double-sided ramps allow the extreme athletes to
mirror each other with epic side-by-side bike stunts that include high-flying flips.
Criss-Cross Trapeze
Nine trapeze artists will ascend to the Criss-Cross Trapeze – the ultimate swing set
consisting of four pedestals for this multi-directional act.
Aerial & Acrobatic Spectacle
Every seat at The Greatest Show On Earth will have an impressive view as fans witness a
combination of solo and group aerialists that shine brightly in the air simultaneously
performing aerial straps and hoops. Jumping, diving, and tumbling across the show floor,
skilled acrobats will leave audiences in awe with acts ranging from Teeterboard, Hand-to-
Hand Balancing, Hoop Diving, Foot Juggling, and more impressive feats.
AND SO MUCH MORE. Get ready for nonstop entertainment all on one stage.
Do not miss out. Make new memories at the circus.
