Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus kick off their first day in Houston this evening in Reliant Stadium. The Over the Top tour features death-defying aerial acts, speeding motorcyclists in the Globe of Steel, flying dogs, limber acrobats, clowns, tigers, and everyone’s favorite- the dancing elephants.
Get a sneak peak inside the world of Ringling Bros. at the pre-show, free to every ticket holder. Meet and interact with many of the characters from the circus. You may even try on a costume.
The circus continues to delight children of all ages 139 years later. P.T. Barnum created “The Greatest Show On Earth” in 1870.
