    I thought I was going to see animals and the motorcycle. This was a childish sing-a-long. I guess I was thinking more Cirque du Soleil. This was like circus at a small fair without animals.

    Under Whelming

    by KBertYarz on 10/25/23PPG Paints Arena - Pittsburgh

    Very underwhelming experience and show. Venue was too large for the performances, all the open floor space swallowed the artists. Would be better suited for a stage show than arenas. Lots of acrobatics, singing & dance. Lacked action performance and wow factors. Concessions and souvenirs very highly priced. Would not return to see again.

    The performers were talented but the show was boring!

    by Rachel on 10/25/23PPG Paints Arena - Pittsburgh

    The two stars is for the performers because they were very talented! Awesome tricks! Unfortunately overall the show was rather boring. The transitions were slow and there is a giant stage with one thing happening at a time so not very engaging. Could have been lumped into an hour. I would not recommend spending the money to see it plus the cost of everything else you end up buying.

    Non traditional

    by Lexi on 10/25/23PPG Paints Arena - Pittsburgh

    Honestly was pretty boring. My children and I weren’t very entertained. There was amazing talent, not trying to undermine the extensive strength, talent, and dedication put into it, but I was expecting the traditional circus with clowns, elephants, lions, and a ring master. This was mainly acrobatics, the men from Ethiopia were our favorite.

    Back to the Circus

    by Circus attendee on 10/25/23PPG Paints Arena - Pittsburgh

    Not the same experience as remembered in my teens. Missed the animals and clowns. Robot dog didn't cut it. All the acts seemed to be the same. Acrobats were great, as well as the bike tricks. Probably won't go again.

    More acrobatics than circus

    by J9 on 10/24/23PPG Paints Arena - Pittsburgh

    There was a lot going on all at once. The show was all acrobatics (good acrobatics if you are expecting that), not a circus. At intermission the kids were bored but enjoyed it by the end.

    Circus

    by Sissy on 10/24/23PPG Paints Arena - Pittsburgh

    Not that it’s the circuses fault but really missed the animals. Lot’s of gymnastics. If you like gymnastics you will love the circus

    Not a circus

    by Mama on 10/24/23PPG Paints Arena - Pittsburgh

    The kids (ages 3, 5 & 8) were bored, unfortunately. The acrobats were awesome, but more entertaining for adults. Where are all the clowns and animals that usually make up a circus?? I won’t be returning until they bring the actual circus back.

    No animals

    by Disappointed in MKE on 10/24/23Fiserv Forum - Milwaukee

    I wish we'd known that there would be 0 animals included in this performance. Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey are synonymous with animals. A great deal of money was spent on us attending the circus, and we would not have spent this amount had we known there would be no animals involved. The price needs to be lowered and it mentioned in advertising that there are no animals involved. The performances were fabulous, but I feel a bit deceived and let down because of the lack of animals.

    It was ok

    by Ruthie on 10/24/23PPG Paints Arena - Pittsburgh

    I actually didn’t realize until the last minute that there were no clowns or animals. And even though there were a bunch of different performers, it was all kind of the same thing, but my three and six year old grandsons loved it, but they didn’t have it to compare to anything else.

    Boring

    by Lady on 10/24/23PPG Paints Arena - Pittsburgh

    I fell asleep that should say it all! The kids did not pay attention, and everything was so expensive

    The greatest show on Earth

    by Elise on 10/24/23PPG Paints Arena - Pittsburgh

    My husband, 9 year old daughter, and I truly had an amazing time. I will definitely be returning to the circus anytime it comes back into my city. Everything from the beginning to the end of the show with this truly amazing.

    Awesome Great Time!

    by Gigi on 10/24/23PPG Paints Arena - Pittsburgh

    Our whole family attended the circus. Everyone of us had an awesome great time! Granddaughter was thrilled and is trying to do some of the acts she saw! Very good family show! The drummers were my personal favorite as my granddaughter is in music class and I want her to become a drummer. She never took her eyes off the drummers! Awesome!
