Circus Saturday

 On the main road of a nearby city, I spotted this across the highway. It was in a mall parking lot, and I had to go and investigate.


As we got closer, I saw that it said "Portugal". What...


Sure enough, it was the Portugal Circus!


Have you ever heard of it? I had not.


Here's what I found out.

It was started in1994, and is a Traditional circus from Mexico. “You can expect clowns, jugglers, magicians, acrobats. This is a 100% family show so it’s for everyone,” said Damian Castro, the manager of the circus who also rides a motorcycle in one of the acts.

Nope, never heard of it. But, I've never been a fan of the circus either. 🤡🎪

When I was a kid, my parents will take me to the circus whenever there is one in town.

Ann said...

No, I have never heard of this circus. I haven't been to a circus in ages.

Have not heard about this one, but since we rarely go more than 2 miles from home, it could be here and we would not know it... I have been to one circus in my life and that was many years ago... I am glad they have this because there are so many circus acts out of work now that the internet has taken over. we can see any thing we want on line without going anywhere. back when I was growing up the fair and circus were a big deal because there was no way to see all that any other way.

I didn't realize there were any traveling circuses left these days.

I think Blogland would be so boring if you decided to stay home and not drive around, finding all these marvelous things.

About the 8 -- we all miss things on the blogs we read. And you read what I wrote instead of looking at the big numbers. I'll take that as a compliment.

I am not crazy about circuses I have only been to one when I was about 10 years old.
Never heard of this one but like the idea of a family owned show.
You always find the most interesting things to post.

Are there animals involved? If so I stay clear! But if not, I would attend in a heartbeat. ~Andrea xoxo

wasn't sure if these still existed. Fun for everyone. Happy Sunday!

Jeanette said...

I've never heard of a Portugal circus before. If they don't have any animal acts it could be a fun thing to go to!

Red Rose Alley said...

How fun! I really like the bright tent they set up for the event. This reminds me of the Greek and Polish festivals I used to go to in my town. It was so much fun with lots of good food. This is really nice to get away from our daily routines and have some great fun at the circus.
