Circus Circus' hallmark is the wonderful array of circus acts that perform center stage at the Carnival Midway. Performers from around the globe grace the Midway stage under Circus Circus' big top, comprising the world's largest permanent circus. From the dazzling aerialists to the fearless trapeze artists to the amusing clowns, the performances on the Midway stage take place daily, twice every hour from 11 a.m. to midnight with complimentary admission. Several amazing new acts will entertain audiences at Circus Circus this year.
"The circus performers built Circus Circus into one of most beloved hotels in the world," said Mike Hartzell, director of Entertainment for Circus Circus Las Vegas. "The circus acts are as good today as they have ever been and our customers have never paid a penny to see them perform."
