HUNTSVILLE – Back by popular demand the fabulous Venardos Circus (veh-NARR-dos), a Broadway-style animal-free circus, is returning to Huntsville. The show will be held at MidCity Plaza with its all-new “Let’s Build a Dream” Tour from October 19 – 29.

This season the wondrous Venardos Circus cast will take audiences on a journey under the big top as it unveils a fresh, magical, and all-new experience for fans. The show features an original score, amazing performers, stunning lighting, and dazzling costumes. The 2023 Venardos Circus is traveling with a new, custom-crafted, Italian-made red-and-white striped tent that offers expanded seating around a central stage for an immersive experience.

“Our cast and crew is thrilled to be returning to the Huntsville MidCity District with a brand-new show,” said ringmaster and producer, Kevin Venardos. “This story promises to amaze and inspire and may even tug at a few heartstrings. It takes heart, courage, and tenacity to build a dream, but the outcome can be beautiful. That’s the message we hope to convey and share with the people of Huntsville and the surrounding area.”

Guests can expect to be transported back in time to the center ring of a centuries-old tradition, but one that has been reinvented for the next generation. The circus performers are also the crew in this traveling tour, much like the original circus tradition. There are no animals in Venardos Circus.
