The Zerbini Family Circus is coming to Beaufort on September 22nd through September 28th.

Calling itself “the greatest one ring circus to travel the US,” the Zerbini Family Circus offers lots of fun with dancers, jugglers, acrobats, trapeze artists, performing animals and clowns all performing under the big top.

In Beaufort for a total of 8 shows spanning 7 days, the kids will love enjoying treats in the bright silk tent full of laughter, shrieks of surprise, exaggerated clown faces and acrobats flying over head.

The big top is setting up at 12 Sammie Lane, just off of Castle Rock Road.

Offering an old fashioned circus experience, the Zerbini family has been flying through the air with the greatest of ease since around 1817. Eight generations of circus performers have descended from the family tree.

The family tradition started in Europe and in 1968, the family moved to the United States, where they all continued to perform in circuses around the country.

The show offers acrobats, high-wire acts, trampoline, trapeze, and some clowning around. Performing animals include a buffalo, ponies, camels, and even the Zerbini family’s dogs, who are rescues from local shelters.
