Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey 'Zing Zang Zoom'

Wednesday, Aug 19 7:30p
at HP Pavilion, San Jose, CA
Price: $15 - $100
Phone: (408) 287-9200
Age Suitability: All Ages

Through the mystery of magic and the mastery of skill, audiences will be spellbound as Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey presents Zing Zang Zoom, a thrill-filled, mind-blowing circus spectacular where family fun is no illusion.

Magical Zingmaster Alex and his assistant, the alluring Levitytia, lead audiences through a kaleidoscope of color and imagery revealing extraordinary worlds of fantasy, flight and phenomena that celebrates the uplifting spirit of the circus and wards off a cynical Mr. Gravity and his team of 'heavies' who try to bring everyone down.

Be mesmerized when a four-ton elephant disappears before your eyes, and a gravity-inducing nemesis transforms across specific into a ferocious tiger. Stand in awe as two formidable, female human cannonballs are blasted through the air in a daring, awe-inspiring display of bravery. Become electrified as the dangerous double wheel of steel, the gasp-inducing high wire and soaring gigantic swings defy both gravity and logic.

Fun-filled magic merges with traditional circus arts to create a world of infinite possibilities where apprentice illusionists levitate their parents with a wave of a wand, and audience spirits keep rising as the high flying circus is (literally) turned upside down. Perhaps the most magical of all, watch in amazement as an incomparable array of exotic animals including a herd of majestic Asian elephants, magnificent Bengal tigers and elegant Arabian and Friesian horses join forces with our human performers to create an experience that will surprise and delight 'children of all ages,' rendering us speechless and reminding us that the magic of 'the Greatest Show On Earth' lives forever in our hearts and imaginations.

Please Boycott Most Depressing Show On Earth

Please do not take your children to circuses with performing wild animals. It is time for this cruel and uncivilized practice to end.

to see covert video of RinglingBros and Barnum&Bailey Circus workers beating and abusing these poor creatures. In a pitifully weak reply, RB,B&B Circus questioned the veracity of the videos and cited numerous veterinarian checks. THE VIDEOS ARE OBVIOUSLY NOT FAKED & I would question the veracity of their vet checks and ask if they were able to assess the MENTAL state of these confused and scared animals. Wild animals belong in the wilderness. Animal "training" is only done by using fear and pain. Stealing wildlife from natural habitat and making money off it is WRONG. Come back to our community when you RETIRE ALL PERFORMING WILD ANIMALS!

A great show for kids! The timeless Ringling Brothers circus is just as I remember

I caught them at HP Pavilion in San Jose and just had a wonderful time. My girls were awestruck with their attention constantly held by the acts, lights and fireworks, and dancing. Asked of their favorite part, the list just went on... the elephants, the dogs, the flowers, the horses, no tigers, the gymnasts...

Only criticisms are the outrageous prices for food and other concessions and the animal rights protesters outside who, though I completely understand where they are coming from, should have a little more sense than to protest so overtly where so many toddlers and children are present.
Also, be careful with the inexpensive tickets. You can get to the circus for around $15 but the view is likely obstructed; we completely missed the trapeze artists and spent 15 minutes entertaining the kids.
