The Circus Comes to the Beach
Panama City Beach, FL – May 1, 2008
Florida’s newest seasonal attraction, Circus by the Sea, will be at Frank Brown Park in Panama City Beach! Circus by the Sea features the Florida State University Flying High Circus and will be in town from June 13 through August second bringing a dazzling three-ring aerial and stage production to all.
The colorful, air-conditioned Big Top will feature nightly performances beginning June 13 running six days a week, Monday through Saturday. Audiences will enjoy an evening of jaw-dropping routines preformed by the students, rivaling any professional group. Circus by the Sea is filled with aerial acrobatics as you would see in Cirque Du Soleil. Admission is $24 for adults, $16 for children (ages 4-16) and free for children under 4 years old.
When you make your vacations plans in Panama City Beach this summer to see the circus choose the number one family friendly resort on the beach, the Holiday Inn SunSpree Resort. The SunSpree offers poolside entertainment, kid’s activities, a kids water playground, and so much more. The resort located is right on the sugar white sands of the Gulf of Mexico and only minutes away from the circus site. Every Wednesday during the circus, a few of the performers will make an appearance on the SunSpree Pool Deck to entertain our guests then give them the opportunity to ask questions and learn more about this great attraction. For the convenience of our guests at the SunSpree you can purchase your circus tickets at the hotel.
Circus by the Sea will also debut the area’s first circus camp, which will include lessons in a wide variety of thrilling circus performance skills. Working one-on-one with FSU performers, circus campers will learn to perform circus performance skills, from balancing acts to juggling, and even flying high on the trapeze. Circus Camp will improve self-confidence, coordination and overall fitness. Upon completion of Circus Camp, campers will have the opportunity to perform at the Thursday evening Circus by the Sea performance, showcasing their newly founded skills before a potentially sold out crowd of 2,000 people! Cost is $285/child; lunch and snacks are included. Camp is for children ages 7 to 12 and runs Monday through Thursday, June 23-July 9 a.m.-2 p.m. Groups of all ages can sign up for circus training on Fridays, by reservation only. Great for family fun, company team-building or a special birthday party!
