THE iconic Great Moscow Circus brings extreme and death-defying acts from around the globe to Coffs Harbour from 7-16 November.
The internationally-renowned Circus first visited Australia in 1965 and has continued the tradition regularly in the decades since.
This season the Circus comprises superstar international acts from Armenia, Ukraine, Brazil, Columbia, Greece, New Zealand and Australia.
“Our new ‘Extreme’ show features daredevil BMX and pro scooter riders, hair-raising multi-motorcycle cage riders and a world record acclaimed pole act,” organisers said.
“Our Armenian clown has been revered as ‘the funniest in the world’, leaving audiences roaring in laughter.
“The Wheel of Death and electrifying high tricks on the trampoline heighten the ‘extreme’ theme, leaving audiences gasping in shock.
“Several extraordinary aerial acts and a mind-blowing trapeze act tote amazing techno colour lighting and superb costuming to thrill the crowd.”
Currently set up in Port Macquarie, the Great Moscow Circus has been receiving rave reviews, prompting standing ovations throughout the big top.
“This year provides the most extreme, wild, professional superstar acts… as the Great Moscow Circus continues its unique tradition in Australia,” organisers said.
Opening night at the Coffs Harbour Showground is Friday, 7 November.
