The Center Ring Circus will be at the Austin National Guard Armory (800 21st St), on Friday March 11th, with shows at 5 pm and 7 pm. Doors open one hour prior to the show.
Tickets allow two children, 14 yrs. and under, free admission with a paying adult. Adult tickets can be found online at www.center-ring-circus.com. I have checked into the site, and it looks like the tickets are $10.00 per adult when bought online before the show.
No Lions, or Tigers, or Elephants, so no big scary animals to worry about. They do advertise lots of laughs, moon bounce, thrills, chills, pony and camel rides.
Affordable Family Fun!

This is a wonderful idea! Now is a great time to start planning!
This summer has been amazingly fun at the GM public library. Lots of reading and learning, kids coming together and learning how fun it is to be part of the community…and discovering it all at the heart of our community…the public library.
Thank you all for making this such an enjoyable summer! Keep reading, keep dreaming, and keep learning!
