Rising teen country artist Maddox Batson will make a special guest appearance with Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey ® Circus on opening night only, February 13, in Philadelphia.
For this exclusive one-night engagement in Philadelphia, Batson will be fully integrated into the live show, appearing throughout the performance and joining the circus as Ringling Bros.’ opening-night guest celebrity. His appearance adds a unique crossover moment as he is the first-ever artist collaboration, complete with a custom remix of Batson’s music, an exclusive song launch, and a custom music video showcased inside the live performance in Ringling’s 150-year history.
The show features Batson’s brand-new single, “If I See Her Again,” during the street-style unicycle act, alongside other hit tracks that drive the production’s dynamic atmosphere. The song will make its official worldwide release on February 14, following its exclusive debut in The Greatest Show On Earth ®, which kicked off on January 2nd.

His opening-night live appearance delivers a special guest celebrity moment for Ringling Bros.’ Philadelphia debut—available one night only, February 13th.
