The Big Circus presents: the summer show "I100ria"!
A unique event awaits all residents and guests of the capital: an interactive tour behind the scenes and an impressive show dedicated to the centenary of the Russian circus.
The "Excursion" program includes: "Alley of Stars", where you can learn about the traditions, superstitions and legends of the circus world; "Secrets of the Hold", which offers management of five arenas: horse, ice, water, light and illusion. You will also be able to look into the choreography hall where circus ballets are created, and visit the studio with handmade costumes.
You will have the opportunity to watch live rehearsals of animal trainers, training of tightrope walkers and magicians. In addition, you can look into the sound engineers' workshop.
Bright pages of history will unfold before you: from the royal booths to the Soviet circus glory. Aerial gymnasts, innovative clowns and daring tricks that have become part of textbooks - all this will come to life in front of you and make you believe in miracles. Modern technologies will not be left out either: water transformations of the arena, 3D projections and flying structures. You will witness a living connection between eras - how the traditions of the past inspire modern artists to new achievements! Tickets for the show "I100ria" at the Bolshoi Circus on Vernadsky Avenue are available for purchase online on our website.
