30 years of Big Apple Circus
What do you get with the Big Apple Circus? A guarantee of one ring, no seat more than 50 feet away from the action, and loads of laughs. There is said to be no other circus like it. You have 5 days, from July 8-13, to catch the show of a lifetime at Ninigret Park in Charlestown, R.I. An amazing cast representing more than 10 countries takes to the center ring to make this 30th anniversary something special.
What began in 1974 with two men, Paul Binder and Michael Christensen, as jugglers having fun on the streets of Europe became the international award-winning, not-for-profit, Big Apple Circus. And it has only grown beyond expectations with every passing year. Tickets range in price from $16-40, with both matinee and evening shows available.
