    One of the best shows I have seen in my life . Every bit was entertaining and funny and interesting. U expected things to see such as Siberian husky’s , sea wales and somuch more. We might come again. Nothing beats Russian circus in the world . Highly recommended . Very good for adults and kids . We came via metro and was easy to find, booked tickets online.

    One of the best circus i have ever seen. Great performance. Price is really worth of the performance. Well arranged everything. I like the animal show as its very rear to see such a great work. Overall whole the time they were keep my eyes on performance floor. Well flow of activities. Some are dangerous, but interested.

    More than pictures, there are difficult lives to work hard for making us funny, More than videos, there are disciplined souls to work smartly to make us the greatest show on earth, Yes, they're in Russia.

    Great place to see the world's best circus probably. However the 3 stars because I felt sorry for the animals they used. Didn't know that circus is still allowed to use animals and I would not go if I knew. Hippopotamus dancing was outrageous in my opinion. Nevertheless my daughter enjoyed the other acts. Specially one love sequence dance performance was breath taking.

    Always a pleasure to witness a Russian Circus. Had all ingredients of an enchanting performance- clowns, trapeeze artists, animals and all these strung in a story. A must see.

    This summer (2017) they had a wonderful program with tigers and lions, dogs, horses, acrobats, beautiful dancers and other great stuff. The light and costumes were awesome, everything was very well planned and done.

    I loved the whole experience. Yes people may say using animals for circus is not ethical treatment and all, but to all those people my question is simple : are you eating any animals for meals? Then the treatment of circus animals is better than the food on your plate. But apart from animals, the other shows were also really cool.

    As far as a circus performance goes, this is the creme de la creme. One of the best circus establishments in not only Russia but the world, its rich history and art form are truly showcased here. Great entertainment value. Amazing except for the seats

    Very interesting show! Great artists! Only food in circus could be better.

  • 5/5 Grigory Goncharov V. 2 years ago on Google
    Wow. Just WOW :) while living in Moscow I used to think that this circus is the worse of the two circuses in Moscow. But we visited both during this visit and this circus by far was superior. The show has a story, clowns are funny, acrobats are skillful and creative, and animals are great (horses, sea lions, tigers, lions, etc). And that's the only place in Moscow which actually put in place at least some COVID-19 precautions. That's sort of a Russian "circ de soile" or even better!
