Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus in Fresno
Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus brings its modern circus production to Save Mart Center in Fresno, California, on. Listed on fresnotickets.net under Other and Circus, the event continues the legacy of a show that has been part of American entertainment history since 1871.
Known as “The Greatest Show on Earth,” Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey was formed through the merging of the Barnum and Ringling shows in 1919. After closing in 2017, the circus returned to touring in 2023 with an animal-free format. Its arena production features acrobats, aerialists, contortionists, daredevil motorcycle acts and performers from around the world, supported by LED lighting, video boards and theatrical effects.
The July 5 performance is part of the circus's tour of major U.S. arenas. The production is designed to transform the arena with aerial rigging and multiple performance areas, bringing a succession of circus acts to the Fresno audience. The event information describes a runtime of approximately two hours, including one intermission. Families can also expect a traditional circus atmosphere with concessions, pre-show activities and merchandise; the show is intended for all ages.
