I remember going to see the Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey Circus when I was little. It was a big deal. The venue seemed like the biggest place on Earth to me, and I was captivated into observant silence as the show unfolded. I got one of those spinny light things at some point, and I remember playing with that contraption for months afterwards. Good times....
I'm hoping to recreate that magic for my kids next week. We've been invited to see the newest Ringling Brothers show, Dragons, at the Jacksonville Veteran's Memorial Arena. Doesn't the name just sound like it's going to be a cool show?! It's a once in a millennium event, honoring the Year of the Dragon. I can't wait, you guys!!!
You can find the Dragons touring schedule on the Ringling Brother's website. If you go to the show, be sure to get there early. An hour before show time there's an all access pre-show for all ticket holders! Aaaaand if you're a Jacksonville area local, you'll want to head to The Landing on January 18 from 5-7 p.m. to celebrate Barrack the elephant's third birthday. It's not every day you get invited to an elephant's party! And it's FREE!
I'll be sure to report back after we see Dragons and let you know how the show was. You can find out more on the Ringling Brother's Facebook page.
Have you ever seen the Ringling Brothers Circus?
