Venardos Circus at The St. Augustine Amphitheatre

Venardos Circus returns to perform at the St. Augustine Amphitheatre from December 18, 2025 – January 4, 2026.  This year they will celebrate a ‘Far and Beyond’ under the big top with a magical, exhilarating experience for guests.

The circus is traveling with a custom-crafted, Italian-made, red-and-white striped tent that offers expanded seating around a central stage for an immersive experience. And, higher views where artists fly high.  Expect to be transported back in time to the center ring of a centuries-old tradition, but one that has been reinvented for the next generation.  But, without animals

Doors open one hour before showtime with concessions available when doors open. Classic circus treats like fresh popcorn, cotton candy, house-made all-natural pink lemonade, packaged candy and more are available.

The main event lasts approximately 90 minutes, with a brief intermission.
