Giveaway: The Big Apple Circus is Coming to Town!
The Big Apple Circus is returning to the DC area with a spectacular new show for it’s 41st season! Coming to National Harbor February 14 – March 24, this year’s extravaganza will feature real-life wonder women, led by new ringmaster Stephanie Monseu.
World-renowned for its one-ring, intimate, and artistic style — where no seat is more than 50 feet from the performers — Big Apple Circus is passionate about revitalizing the circus for modern-day audiences with unique and astounding human feats in the ring and enough sizzle outside the ring to entertain guests from the very moment they enter.
The season promises another sensational experience filled with Big Apple’s roster of superhero talents, ready to incite jaw-dropping awe and sheer joy in audiences of all ages. Ringmaster Monseu will be joined in the ring by a multitude of fierce female-led acts and more, including the “strongest mom in the world,” performers will (literally) bounce off the walls in a feisty trampoline act, a double wide trapeze act showcasing seven fliers & two catchers in addition to the quadruple somersault, a daring and balletic dual aerial straps act, a gravity-defying horizontal juggler, hilarity from circus clowns, and many more phenomenal acts.
This year, adults and children can also experience new pre-show thrills and sample an array of culinary delights. Upgrades to the food selection include bespoke circus classics and divine cocktail creations by one of the nation’s top mixologists Pamela Wiznitzer (three-time “American Bartender of the Year” nominee). In addition to tasty bites and bevies for the general public, the VIP Experience in the Mirror Room is peppered with eye-popping fun activities and photo-ops galore.
The Big Apple Circus is running from February 14 – March 24 under the Big Top at National Harbor. Tickets are $20-95 and can be purchased online through Ticketmaster.com. You can also look for a deal on select seats. Of course, you can also try to win them through the giveaway below.

The razzle-dazzle of the rolla-bolla, an act that teeters right on the edge of equilibrium! The dynamo of the diabolo, the whirling double–tops of the Big Top! An aerial space-age acrobatic adventure — an ascent to amazement! The risky rhythms of the Risley team, twisting and turning, topsy-turvy! The cadenzas of camels and horses, and the exuberance of playful pooches, out to dazzle with delight! The cunning conjurors of the quick-change act, defying belief and inspiring awe! The incredible flexible limbs of the contortionist in an act that will literally bend your imagination! And Francesco the Clown, captivating the crowd with his musical merriment and gentle humor. Under the direction of maestro Rob Slowik, the renowned Big Apple Circus Band provides as always the live and glorious tunes of the sawdust spectacular. And finally, our irrepressible, magnificent Ringmaster, the illustrious and incomparable John Kennedy Kane will summon the spirits of the circus universe to immerse you in the wonder, the joy and the astounding magic of METAMORPHOSIS!
