Circus Vargas

Great time is always had at Circus Vargas. We go every year and they mix the show up every year. We usually go with friends and family of all ages and everyone enjoys it.

Saw the last act in Arcadia… we got front row arena seats… awesome seats though even bleachers would be great but facing the front is important. so sit in the middle… they have all the major acts… bikes…magic…trapeze…human juggling… and other aerial acts… very entertaining and interactive for kids if you get there by 6:15 pm for a 7 pm show time. not air conditioned so definitely go to the eve show… though it was sveltering under the big top at 7 pm as they don’t have vents. we brought our own ice cold drinks… snacks are pricey and not so good… overall a great experience…

The Theater: Small & intimate. The stage is very close to the seating area. Every seat can see good view of the stage. Benches are a little bit old.
The Show: Good idea for family outing, especial with kids. It is definitely very entertaining for the kids. The ticket price is not expansive.
Lots audience participation time. The quality of the show is so-​so but since the ticket price is not too expansive, it is worth for 2 hours entertainment.
There is concession stands, face paining ($ 5) and merchandise for sale. There are portable restrooms on the site. There is seating area outside the theater.
The Parking: Private lot ($ 4)

I had such a great time at the show with my friends! I bought the tickets from Goldstar at less than 20 bucks per ticket for bleacher seating and it is totally worth it! The tent is not very big and I feel that even for the bleacher seating we bought, I felt that it has a pretty good view to keep us entertained throughout the show from the back.
When I bought the tickets, I have no idea what to expect from the show as this is my first time watching a circus. I am amazed how a circus can be filled with so much fun! There are dangerous acrobats stunts high up in the air, trampoline, magic show, bike stunts in a cage and etc. It is definitely more than a circus as I felt as if I am watching a musical at some point of time, with the singing and choreograph dance.
It is a nice event to bring your kids along as the performers will play some games with the kids before the show starts. The performers will line up at the reception area after the show and you can take some pictures with them if you want. Food and drinks is pricey, popcorn and nachos at $ 6. Parking is $ 4.
Overall, GREaT experience, GREaT show!

I grew up hearing about Circus Vargas but never had the opportunity to check it out! I know this is a show more for kids. So I went in with no expectations for the first time and I must say that overall, I really was impressed with the circus show! The show was much more entertaining than the circus show acts at circus circus at Vegas! You won’t see any animals at this show. I went with 3 other adults and they enjoyed it as well.
They had a variety of different performance. Acrobatic, magic show, bike show, trampoline, and other flying acts. The performers had beautiful costumes and make up. Overall I was quite entertained. I want to come back when my nephew is older to enjoy the performance. All them kids there all had fun! This would be a good family event with very affordable tickets. You can get a good deal on the tickets on groupon or good star. Buy early because their tickets do sell out quick!
Food looked like any other typical food you can get at the theaters but way overpriced. Save your money and bring your own drinks and snacks.

Ok, no animals. Let’s just get that fact fired off first. Best prices I think out there are from Groupon and Goldstar. Parking starts at $ 4, which should do just fine for everybody.
Concessions are quite expensive, $ 6 for a regular (small?) popcorn, and $ 7(!) for a large. When it’s hot outside, it’ll be even worse inside the venue. They have fans but they won’t do much unless you’re point blank range. The sound system is loud and had blared feedback way too many times.
Each performance can be quite short. They do their best to have audience participation, and that can be fun. Some acts got many of us gasping in fear. The spinning contraption with two guys in hamster wheels — who knew jump roping could be so scary?
They don’t announce their intermissions or when it’s over, but you should recognize the finale. The entire program lasts about 1.5 hrs.
Overall it was fun, but I’d say maybe more appropriate for kids 5 – 10 years old. Splurge on the popcorn, but bring your own drinks!
