OPENING WEEKEND
The cast has arrived and taken over the MC Studio. The whole ensemble is here and ready to dive (hoop dive that is) into opening weekend at Garfield Park!
Our performers have been working hard the last few weeks to put together an incredible show for the 2019 Circus in the Parks Tour. We are thrilled to have many of our Midnight Circus favorites returning and excited to welcome our new cast members from around the world. We have artists from Mexico, Paris, Brussels, New York and more.
Have you ever seen a Midnight Circus show and wondered how a cast member became a part of the circus? Or why they like juggling or spinning in the air? Our ensemble members have some amazing stories, and we want to share those with you. Check out our Performers page to meet everyone in the cast before seeing us under the Little Big Top!
Be sure to come see our One World, One City show at your neighborhood park or come visit us at a park you’ve never seen before. Chicago has a lot of wonderful parks and what better way to discover a new favorite than with Midnight Circus!
"Chicago has some real challenges... Children and families enjoying Midnight Circus in their local park ain't one of them" - Longtime Chicagoan
Dear Midnight Circus Community, For nearly two decades, Midnight Circus has brought Chicagoans of all ages, races, and socioeconomic status together to laugh, gasp, dream, and be inspired.
We are excited to welcome the new year and eager to bring our much anticipated 2023 Tour to parks all over Chicago!
This time last year we were eagerly planning our 2020 Big Top tour when we had to regroup and plan what would eventually become our safe and spectacular Open Air Tour. We are extremely proud of what we were able to accomplish last year amidst the challenges thrown our way.
