    Horrible

    by A circus lover on 2/27/24Barclays Center - Brooklyn

    What happened to Ringling Brothers. I have attended so many circuses this was the worst. I will never attend another circus like this again.

    The animals

    by Shelly on 2/27/24Wells Fargo Center - Philadelphia

    SAVE YOUR MONEY

    by KatNip718 on 2/27/24Barclays Center - Brooklyn

    I was so disappointed by the show. 2 hours of acrobatic performances did not entertain me or my kids. I know you don’t have large animals( tigers and.elephants) but I thought surely they would have real dogs. Nope!! This is no longer the greatest show on earth. It maybe the greatest show at a state fair, but not at Barclays.

    Lacking

    by Keke on 2/27/24Barclays Center - Brooklyn

    The show was ok. I took my daughter but she didn’t enjoy it and was ready to go after 30 mins. My child is 4yrs old but didn’t enjoy.

    Great!

    by Dee on 2/27/24Barclays Center - Brooklyn

    Great show! The kid and I enjoyed it. Although it was different than the circus I remember as a child, It was nice to see performers from many countries performing thrilling acts.

    No clown. No animals

    by NYCHB on 2/27/24Barclays Center - Brooklyn

    I was surprised that I didn't even see a clown. It was mainly acrobatics and BMX bicycle tricks. And my opinion the circus is not what it used to be and it was a bit boring.

    Great but missing something

    by 80’s girl on 2/27/24Barclays Center - Brooklyn

    Great show but definitely is missing something and no, no is not animals. Needs to be more circus 🎪, I felt in a concert ..too much singing and yadayada. I was surprised not to found magicians, clowns and that mystique part of the circus. I went to Big Apple 🎪 and was way better.

    Not what is used to be

    by Jessy on 2/27/24Barclays Center - Brooklyn

    First let me start by saying that I am a true fan of the original Barnum and Bailey Ringling Brother Circus, I have been attending since I was a kid. I've visited their museum in Sarasota, Florida, I am a true fan. As an adult I made sure to support and see the final show before they shut down, this was back in like 2018. Barnum and Bailey Ringling Brothers were getting a lot of bad press and attendance to their shows was dwindling due to animal rights , PETA etc. I get it , we want to ensure the safety of all animals, I am against any animal cruelty. Fast forward, present day, this establishment is back and I couldn't be more excited, I now have two young girls and I'm stoked to take them to the circus and have them experience all the feels I did as a kid and even as an adult, the original B&B Ringling Brothers was the BEST, it's no surprise their slogan is "The Greatest show on earth! "(sidebar: I've been to others such as Big Apple Circus and The Vasquez Circus, these have clowns, very entertaining, no animals and lots of acrobats, bike tricks and balancing acts) WELL, this comeback lacked everything. It lacked clowns, although there were no animals they had a robot dog that was so weird, no clowns, it had a singing/instrument competition, balancing act, BMX bike act and acrobats. It was way too long and sadly my kids were bored out their mind begging to leave not to mention it was SUPER expensive $35 for light-up bubble machine wand, $45 for kid hoodie, $15 lemonade, $15 popcorn, with two kids we spent close to $300 on just food/Drinks and souvenirs. Definitely not worth it, save your money and attend the other circuses when they come to town. I will not be back to another Barnum and Bailey Ringling Brothers event. It feels like they sold/licensed the name and its a copycat of what is already out there.

    Terrible

    Amazing but rushed

    by Alec Thorp on 2/27/24Barclays Center - Brooklyn

    The talents of the performers can't be denied, but I felt it ended too soon. It would have really helped if the show was longer than two hours.

    Disappointed

    by Mary on 2/27/24Barclays Center - Brooklyn

    The whole show was boring, more like a concert than a circus performance,We left the show midway and didn’t want to watch it any more, and we probably won’t watch it again in the future.
