Spectacular Aussie circus hits Carnival City
Tickets are now on sale online at Computicket and in-store at Comutputicket outlets
THE Australian Circus Spectacular ends its nationwide South African tour at Sun International’s Carnival City in May this year.
Produced by the makers of the acclaimed Great Moscow Circus and Great Euro Circus in Australia, the Australian Circus Spectacular has been touring South Africa and thrilling audiences at Sun International venues across the country since February.
The show reaches a crescendo in Carnival City’s ample Big Top Arena between May 26 and 29 when the talented, daring and slightly insane performers will dazzle Gauteng audiences with their incredible feats.
The Australian Circus Spectacular is a modern and exclusively human, feel-good circus spectacular that blends stunning cirque style acrobatics, hilarious slapstick comedy and extreme, high-octane stunts. The executive producer of the show is Cape Town-born Sebastian Cassie.
This is the first time that the circus has visited foreign soil, and it promises to leave audiences in awe with the cast performing unbelievable feats. Highlights of the show include one of the world’s few surviving human cannonball acts performed by an expert stuntman, Luiz Daza, who has literally flown over audiences seven days a week during the sell-out run of the Great Euro Circus in Australia.
Audiences will also marvel at the dizzying Globe of Death act, which features up to five motorbike riders circling a daring dancer with Mad Max-style bravado before the sphere splits in half. Thrilling freestyle motorcross riders then jump the Globe of Death in a rush that will excite any petrol-head.
Between these breathtaking and death-defying stunts, a troupe of talented and equally daring circus performers will perform amazing feats of human endurance, skill and strength. From the Queen of the Silks, Kiarnna; vaudevillian performer and slapstick comedian, Val De Fun; the illusion of the salsa-dancing quick-change act; to the duo pole performance by Edison and Giselle, audiences will be mesmerised from start to finish.
The Australian Circus Spectacular is world-class family entertainment that will have South Africans on the edge of their seats. “Carnival City looks forward to hosting the show for the final leg of its South African tour. We encourage people to book their tickets sooner rather than later to avoid missing this spectacular show during its limited run in our Big Top Arena,” says Michelle Smith, marketing manager at Carnival City.
Tickets are now on sale online at Computicket and in-store at Computicket outlets, Shoprite, Checkers, and Checkers Hyper stores.
Tickets for the show at Carnival City range from R250 to R450 per person, with a discount of R50 for children aged under 14 and groups of 10 or more booking together.
