    Don’t waste your $

    by Ripped Off on 4/14/24Alliant Energy PowerHouse - Cedar Rapids

    When an event advertises special packages to do certain things, you’d expect those things at baseline… When an event advertises even more basic level things, you’d still expect those, right? Well… the only reason our family wanted to go to this was for our toddler who loves elephants. We paid for the higher end package which was to include the opportunity to see and ride the elephants before the show. When we arrived all that was there were a bunch of overpriced rides on jump houses ($10 for 3 minutes) and slides ($10 for one slide down). The circus had no animals before, during, or after the show. If the only reason you want to go is to watch acrobats, by all means, but I’d still suggest spending the extra $20 a ticket and go to a Cirque show, if that’s your thing.

    A bit disappointed

    by MF on 4/6/24Alliant Energy PowerHouse - Cedar Rapids

    It seemed like it was advertised that you would be able to see or ride an elephant. There were no animals, only an albino snake yuck. My son loves elephants so I thought it would be a fun experience for him. Not worth the money to go. The show didn’t even start on time at 6:30 and started 15-20 minutes later, by that point we left. The pre show events were over priced and there wasn’t much to do. What was also disappointing were the items to purchase at the souvenir stands. None were circus related or worth what they were costing. I wouldn’t go back.

    Kids loved it

    by Kat on 4/6/24Alliant Energy PowerHouse - Cedar Rapids

    It’s a first for my kids and myself. We really enjoyed it a lot. My 4 year old is a fan of trolls so seeing trolls out there made it even better.

    A lot of fun!

    by Belinda on 4/6/24Alliant Energy PowerHouse - Cedar Rapids

    We had a really good time at the circus with my four year old. The circus crew brings a lot of energy and joy, and some very neat acts that kept us all captivated. :)

    Better than expected

    by Jim on 2/22/24Hartman Arena - Park City

    My 79 year old mother said she would like to see the circus that was advertised on a local TV station. I had never heard of the Carden Circus before, but hey, Mom wanted to go so I bought early bird front row tickets for the Sunday 2 PM show, Feb 18th. Honestly, I wasn't expecting much. I was very pleasantly surprised with just how entertaining the show was! The acrobatic performances were jaw-dropping and the animal trainers were superb! The clown segments provided some chuckles, and the motorcycles in the ball were absolutely amazing! I am a 59 year old guy that frequently found myself saying "Wow! Wow! How can they do that?" Great entertainment for the price and I will definitely go again the next time the Carden Circus is in Wichita.

    Grandchildren were in Awe!

    by Susie q on 2/22/24Hartman Arena - Park City

    My 3 yr old grandson and my 1 1/2 yr old granddaughter thoroughly enjoyed the circus performers, treats, and mementos. Having the opportunity to to interact with circus performers, animals, and activities like the bouncy house with slides, face painting, riding the little train pre-, intermission, and post-show gave my 3 yr old grandson a chance to get his “wiggles” out and then in his seat to watch again was a life-saver. My granddaughter was totally mesmerized by all the action of the 3-rings, especially the aerialists on silks as they performed high above us. All of the circus employees we interacted with were courteous and helpful.Great experience!

    Very good

    by Granny on 2/21/24Hartman Arena - Park City

    The entertainers were very good. Snacks were a plenty. Lots of fun items for the kids to buy. The animals, elephants, camels and some of the horses looked quite thin. Even some of the children noticed.

    Carden circus

    by Mimi of 6 on 2/21/24Hartman Arena - Park City

    I was a bit disappointed in this circus compared to others I've seen. For the amount I paid for our tickets I was expecting a little bit more with maybe some lions & stunts & acrobatics. There were parts of the show that were good but alot of it just felt like filler material.
