Giveaway: Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey® The Coney Island Illuscination
Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey® Presents The Coney Island Illuscination, a fantasy-filled world where thrills, wonderment and unbelievable magic intersect with the outlandish fun of the circus.
Illuscinator, and host of this all-new Gold edition, David DaVinci, along with performers from all over the world invite you and your family as they enthrall you with eye-popping illusions and thrilling circus acts all at The Greatest Show On Earth® which runs June 17 – September 6 in an air-conditioned tent on Surf Avenue and West 21st Street, the same location where Ringling Bros. spent its successful 2009 inaugural season. Tickets, starting as low as $10, are now on sale.
DaVinci, who holds several world records, thrills audiences with eye-popping illusions and mind-blowing transformations, all mysteriously interwoven throughout the show. Circus-goers’ eyes will be transfixed on the center of the ring as they witness international acts that astonish and amaze. These unbelievable acts include:
-
- Viktoriya and Widny, the Empresses of the Air, who execute a never-before-seen extreme hair hang
- The Kung Fu Kings, who combine mixed martial arts with mind-boggling strength to twist solid metal poles around their bodies and dive through hoops of razor-sharp sabers, blindfolded!
- Anton and Alex, The Barons of Balance, reveal amazing agility as they effortlessly leap from one thumb-thin low-wire to another.
- Flying high and flipping furiously on the teeterboard and the Russian bar are no other than the Salsations!

Ringling Brothers Circus has a long history of abusing animals. See circuses.com to see plenty of evidence of this. Don’t support animal cruelty by attending their shows…Ringling could easily have a fantastic show without forcing animals to perform in unnatural ways.
My ten year old sister is visiting me for a month and I really want to make this month special for her. I am a college student and do not have the money to pay for the tickets. We have never been to the circus and it would a amazing if I can get the chance to take my little sister to the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus!! It would be a dream come true to experience such a magical and fun opportunity. I appreciate your consideration. If we get the chance to go we will forever remember this experience. Thank you.
CONGRATULATIONS JODI AND EILEEN! HAVE FUN AT THE CIRCUS!
Thank you for entering and for reading The Adventures of a NYCity Mama!!
Only a few more days before we see the Circus.
I don’t know who is more revved up – the kids or me????
