GREEN COVE SPRINGS – The Loomis Bros. Circus will bring its three-rings of fun to the Cattleman’s Arena for six shows in three days, starting with opening night on Friday night, Oct. 1, at 7:30 p.m. Now in its 24th year, Loomis Bros. remains one of the few traditional style circuses, just like you remember as a child.

The sights of superhuman athleticism and animal magnificence, the sounds of our singing ringmaster, the smells of fresh popcorn and cotton candy …. They all will be there.

The circus’ international cast of performers will have you on the edge of your seat with their amazing skills which include a rotating program of specialty and animal acts from all corners of the globe including juggling, dogs, rolla bolla, unicycles, motorcycle daredevils, horses, aerialists and elephants.

All of their animal performers receive the best, loving care – 24 hours a day, seven days a week – the company said.

There also are three shows scheduled for Saturday – at 1:30 p.m., 4:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. – and two shows on Sunday at 3 p.m. and 6 p.m. Tickets, available at loomiscircus.com or at the box office, start at $8 for children 3-12 and $20 for everyone 13 and older.
