COLUMBIA, S.C. (WCBD) – Get ready to be amazed as Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey bring the reimagined edition of The Greatest Show On Earth to Columbia from February 7-9, 2025. Produced by Feld Entertainment, the worldwide leader in live entertainment experiences, this iconic circus returns with an all-new production designed to captivate today’s families.
With 75 performers representing 18 different nationalities, the show features over 50 exhilarating circus acts in a fast-paced, action-packed two-hour performance. The all-new Ringling promises to deliver breathtaking stunts, high-energy performances, and laugh-out-loud moments to keep everyone on the edge of their seats. Whether you’re a longtime fan or new to the circus, this is the perfect family entertainment experience, offering something for everyone, from kids to grandparents.
Audiences can expect a 360-degree viewing experience that immerses them in the action all around the arena. The arena floor transforms into the ultimate playground, where gravity-defying stunts and thrilling performances unfold right before your eyes.
Among the unique acts that audiences will witness:
- A never-before-seen triangular highwire and crisscross flying trapeze adds complexity to traditional circus acts and allows fans to see more action and performers simultaneously.
- A high-energy BMX bike stunt scene, with bikes and riders flipping high above the arena on ramps and trampolines, delivers an adrenaline rush for the crowd.
- Live music performances that add vibrant energy to the show and encourage audience participation.
- The Double Wheel of Destiny features four daredevils executing daring leaps and somersaults on two spinning apparatuses, 30 feet above the ground at incredible speeds.
- Wesley, the One Wheel Wonder, is a Guinness World Record-setting performer riding the world’s tallest unicycle at 34.6 feet.
- Human juggling, where a performer flips and twists high and fast in the air, propelled by his partner’s feet—a must-see sight.
“Over the past two years, we’ve innovated and deepened the connection between performers and the audience, creating an unforgettable experience,” says Juliette Feld Grossman, CEO and Producer of The Greatest Show On Earth . “At the heart of every Ringling show is a sense of wonder and authenticity. No matter the generation, every audience member will find moments that resonate, delivering the thrilling and inspiring experience only Ringling can offer.”
