A beloved New York City tradition is back under the big top! The Big Apple Circus returns to Lincoln Center’s Damrosch Park from November 7, 2025, through January 4, 2026, bringing an all-new production of high-flying acrobatics, daring stunts, and family fun.

Since its debut in 1977, the Big Apple Circus has captivated audiences with world-class performances and community outreach programs, including its famous Clown Care initiative, which brought laughter to hospital settings, and sensory-friendly shows for those with special needs.
This season, audiences can expect a reimagined spectacle featuring an international cast of performers. Highlights include:
-
The Bone Breakers, contortionists from Guinea known for their gravity-defying flexibility.
-
The Kung Fu Boys, who blend martial arts and acrobatics in a thrilling display of skill.
-
The Flying Maluendas, daredevil trapeze artists from Chile who will leave you breathless.
With acts from around the world — and even a few four-legged stars — this year’s show promises a mesmerizing blend of artistry, strength, and humor.
Tickets start at $26 on select dates.
