We’re embracing the old with the new, celebrating and sharing the history and tradition of the old circus, while exposing you to the dazzling and marvelous realms of the new. The event features a wide variety of unique performance artists that include magicians, jugglers, clowns, contortionists, acrobats, fire dancers, hoopers, living statues, aerial acts, local musicians and more! Enjoy two days of excitement and intrigue in the beauty of the Blue Ridge Mountains!

Internationally acclaimed aerial performance artists, Imaginaerial, will be making the trek from New York City to Floyd on Saturday evening to wow us with an incredible program. Each evening will close out with rockin’ performances from great regional bands.
