It’s been many years since I have since a Ringling Bros. and Barnum and Baily Show. To be exact I was 5 years old and I went with my dad to a local show in Washington D.C. I don’t remember much of it but I remember the Elephants and I remember my dad buying me the beautiful Elephant Stuffed Animal that I passed down to my girls.As luck will have it The Ringling Bros. and Barnum and Baily Greatest Show On Earth Presents Out Of This World is coming To Washington D.C. and Virginia! I am super excited to announce that I will be taking my family this year to the very last show they will ever be able to see from this amazing company.
I’m sad to say that it will be the one and only show they will be able to catch, but I’m grateful to be able to share this experience with them. I cannot wait to grab some stuffed animals of their own to take home, I hope we find an elephant like my dad bought for me! Make sure you come back and check out our full review and vlog video.

I can’t believe this show is ending. I need to see it one last time.
Jennifer Parker-Gilbert says
I’ve always wanted to take my kids to the circus. They would love this show with the lions, clowns, and acrobats!
Krista Bel says
Wow are those lions real? I cant believe it, they really are kings, see how they sat. I’ve never seen a circus, it’s not a thing where i come from but the pictures were beautiful to look at.
momknowsbest15 says
I love going to the circus. So much fun action and I get cotton candy.
Elizabeth O. says
It would be so nice to watch this with the whole family! It’s fun and it’s full of surprises! It’s been quite a while since I watched anything like this.
Sarah Bailey says
I was always amazed with that kind of show, maybe because it was really OUT OF THIS WORLD. Those Lion King was so huge.
Steven Goodwin says
Wow, it’s their last year huh? That’s sad. We love going up to the Bristol Renaissance Faire each year to enjoy the acrobats and all the talented acts there as well. Feels like we are losing the creative side of humanity sometimes!
Ruth I. says
Watching circus is really a fun experience! How I wish I am near, I will surely watch it!
nlampert says
It’s so nice that you’re able to take your family to see this show before it closes. I’ve never been to a Ringling Bros. show but I hope to get the chance before it ends!
pinkoddy says
My children had their first circus last year and they loved it. I am glad your children got to experience it before it ends.
sparkofsouthernmoms says
I have always wanted to go and see the circus! I think it would be a great and wonderful experience for me and my family!

Lisa Rios says
Wow! That looks amazing. I went to one of their shows once and I was absolutely thrilled. So glad it’s coming to your city!
Beso Beauty says
I can’t remember the last time I was at the circus, but when I was younger we used to go every year it was in town. I think it was actually this particular titled circus too! That’s crazy that they are still around. Thanks for sharing – it was fun seeing how it was for you 🙂
Claire Santiago says
I am not familiar of the group but they look amazing. I love watching circus show, it gives me magical feeling
angela milnes says
The interesting acrobatic acts of the circus have never failed to stun the audience and that has translated into a huge fan following for the show.

I don’t know them but it sounds amazing plan with the kids.

My family loves going to the circus. It’s a fun and entertaining place to spend on the weekend. I’ve never heard of this circus group but it sounds like they have good performers.
emmaeatsandexplores says
I love cirque du soleil and some of the acts here look very similar – I’ve not been to a traditional circus but it looks like it would be such a fun evening out!
katyashadeofteal says
I can’t believe this show is finally coming to an end. I’m not that surprised, but I was hoping to see it someday.
Janine Escolta says
Very interesting! Learning circus skills is physical, creative education which has been shown to improve academic performance.
Dawn Gibson-Thigpen says
