The holidays can be a three-ring circus, but instead of being the ring master at home, we found a spot that’s embracing the craziness of the season.
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, Deco fans, welcome to Riverside Circus.
Emi Guerra, The Wharf Miami: “The Riverside Circus came from our love for the the old-school Ringling Bros. Circus.”
For one weekend and one weekend only, Riverside Circus is at Wharf Miami.
Emi Guerra: “The Wharf Miami is a special event venue on the Miami River.”
Step right up and follow your nose inside for the circus extravaganza.
Emi Guerra: “There’s so much going on. The decorations, the entertainment — we give away clown noses on the way in.
Once you’re inside, marvel at all the circus acts.
Emi Guerra: “We do kid-friendly programming during the day and adult programming at night. We have jugglers, stilt walkers, face painters. We have it all.”
And what’s a circus without popcorn and cotton candy? This one has booze, too.
Emi Guerra: “There is always a steep discount on drinks.”
Elizabeth Gonzalez, customer: “I love the circus theme. It’s so fun. It really comes to life to have these guys on stilts and juggling and interacting with the kids and people makes for a good time.”
Tickets to the Riverside Circus are free, which leaves you more money for some of the amazing food.
Emi Guerra: “We have food trucks that serve all types of stuff. We have seafood, tacos, classic American fare. We have pizza, doughnuts. Mojo Donuts — they are a town favorite.”
The Riverside Circus is open from now through Sunday, Jan. 5.
Emi Guerra: “We really like doing things that appeal to everyone, to the community. There are a lot of people who are off work during the holiday season, and it’s perfect for us to roll in and start off the year with something fun.”
