Picture the “ultimate playground” with trapeze swings soaring through the air, jaw-dropping somersaults off teeter-totters, extreme BMX riders defying gravity on huge ramps, and a merry-go-round stage spinning with excitement, and much more. It doesn’t get any bigger or better than this!

Wheeling at record-breaking heights will be Wesley Williams, The One Wheel Wonder, who gives multiple unique unicycles a spin around the show floor, the tallest setting a record at over 34-feet.
For the first time in Ringling history, a thrilling display on Criss-Cross Trapeze by the legendary Flying Caceres Troupe will astound with two acts in one!
Elevated technical precision and superhuman feats take a “crisscross aerial trapeze” and throw in an incredible curve. An in-act change in platform setting introduces catchers, big tricks, and extra “wow moments” for the audience, including a double-layout-bar-to-bar set of somersaults seen for the first time by U.S. audiences. The Criss-Cross Flying Trapeze will captivate audiences with a real 360-degree view and feature nine trapeze artists. The performers will soar from front to back, side to side, and diagonally within the swing set-inspired play space set at 40-feet above the ground! Hailing from Chile, Ecuador, USA, France, and Brazil, the troupe will complete incredible high-flying feats.
Two side-by-side wheels that rotate independently at epic speeds will hang at 30-feet above the ground kickstarting an adrenaline-inducing act. Powered by four acrobats, the performance will heat up with never-before-seen stunts as they jump between both apparatuses.
The arena will celebrate and have a blast as human cannonball royalty Skyler Miser steps on the show floor. Or, maybe it’s Skyler that’s having a blast – quite literally. Following in the footsteps of her parents, she’ll load into a rocket – designed specifically for Ringling – and soar through the sky as a human rocket for the first-time launching to an incredible, inconceivable distance at 65 mph.
Imagine the ultimate playground, where see-saws flip and send you floating high into the sky. That’s exactly what will happen when the Troupe Brothers from Mongolia hit the show floor! Audiences will be astounded by the creativity and jaw-dropping originality of this teeterboard act.
Blending traditional style with the modern, pedestrian vibe of a Korean-style teeterboard, this act will launch and land with plenty of surprises and thrills in between including a quintuple somersault that has never been seen in the U.S.!
Introducing, Bailey, a robotic quadruped and the audience’s soon-to-be new (and adorable) best friend. A true part of the cast, Bailey will be spotted around the arena floor getting into mischief and having fun with Nick Nack before joining the full cast in dynamic choreography!
