Circus Flora - St. Louis, Missouri

I had a chance to watch the dress rehearsal. This is going to be a great show to see. It's not just a regular Circus show. I would recommend this show for the whole family.

What a hidden gem! Went with a 4 and 8 year old (plus a 9 year old friend and his mom) and we all loved it. Went because a coworker's son is in the show and the coworker assured me even with my 8 year olds anxiety and sensory concerns he'd enjoy it - and he did!

Parking was my only concern. I live in the city so I wasn't scared, just uncertain where to park and the website recommends a few places, some a few blocks walk. Ended up parking on Grand basically in front of the Fox and walking, but there was so much street parking on Washington Ave that could have gotten us closer (we went on a Wednesday, 6pm show and metered parking is free after 6 so only spent a quarter). There is also a lot DIRECTLY across the street, sign said $15. I wouldn't have paid that, but others might so worth mentioning. DO NOT park in the Baptist Church parking lot.

Wow! We decided to end our anniversary outings with our first trip to Circus Flora at the Big Top and it totally didn't disappoint! We got to see Undercover on opening night, bravo guys especially to The Flying Archers! Keep up the effort!
The theme and skill involved was on point. Also it was hilarious!

We sat in the second row which was totally worth it! However the place is small so any seat is a good seat I think.
Tix were a little hard to find on their website but once you find the right webpage it's simple. Please go support!

Such a fun show! We got to see this season’s “Under Cover” performance and it was delightful! The acts this year are all superb, and the tent has A/C 🙌🏻 I cannot recommend a Circus Flora show enough!

I was captivated since the opening. I absolutely enjoyed every minute. Yes they use animals in their act, but the animals looked healthy and happy. Prices on food and water was fairly cheap for a show of any kind ($2 water 20oz) children and adults may be picked out of the crowd to participate, and applauding is frequent. Even got me to sing along at the end. They got me lol.

I’ve gotten to go to several shows over the years and these artists never disappoint! It’s a smaller venue so the experience is wholly different from any other circus you’ll attend. Their roots in theater means the show has a story too and you’ll enjoy it no matter how old or young you are. They have a new AC unit this year bbrrrrrrrr!

Circus Flora is AMAZING! I was impressed by the quality of the production at all levels. Best of all, it features acts for everyone in the family. My six-year-old was laughing hysterically throughout the performances. The narrator, the musicians, the original musical score were all incredible. You can tell that all of the performers love what they do. St. Louis is so lucky to have Circus Flora. We plan to visit again in the future. Best of all the circus tent has A/C!

For a small circus it really packs a punch. All the acts were quite entertaining. Originally seeing so many young kids with their parents attending the circus, I expected it to be another kiddy oriented circus but I was pleasantly surprised that it delivered entertainment value for teens and adults as well. Our favorites acts had to be the trampoline act, the woman who swung by her hair, the contortionist and the aerial act performed by the couple in the dream sequence. They were worth the price of admission alone but add to that mix, a funny mc who knows how to get laughs, the show really exceeded our expectations.I would recommend it to all ages and don't worry about buying the cheap seats, the small venue gives almost every seat a pretty good view. Oh, and one last thing if you end up going in late October like we did (because the show which usually has it's performances earlier in the year was delayed due to COVID) then make sure to dress warmly. We wore hats, gloves, scarves and warm winter jackets but being in a fairly open tent, by the end of the show we were all very very cold. Brrr!
