Zoppe Circus

What started a decade ago as unique addition to a busy performing arts season at Chandler Center for the Arts has turned into one of the most popular, local Holiday traditions. With authentic roots in the Old-World Italian tradition dating back 176 years ago, this one-ring circus -- where no seat inside is more than 20-feet from the crowd-pleasing, jaw-dropping action -- features astounding acrobatics, canine capers, equestrian showmanship and of course, Nino the clown! ... and plenty of hot chocolate and popcorn for everyone. The Zoppé Italian Family Circus will have matinée and evening shows from Dec. 26 through Jan. 6, 2019.
