Performers from the Circo Hermanos Caballero will perform under the Big Top in the Great Mall parking lot near Marshall's from Thursday, July 7 through Tuesday, July 12. The circus is currently at Hilltop Mall in Richmond.
The show features a motorcycle "Death Globe", clowns, trapeze artists 11-year-old Ruben Caballero III and his partner Marco Antonio, camels, jugglers, contortionists, and a mini ponies act according to Executive Promoter Bill Mendosa.
Circo Hermano Caballero, a six-generation circus family, is originally from Mexico, according to Mendosa. This is their first time in Milpitas.
He said, “We were in Las Vegas Circus Circus for 10 years, with Ringling Brothers for 6 years, 4 years in Japan, and 4 years in Russia.”
On Wednesday, Mendosa and Ringmaster Ruben Caballero appeared before the Milpitas Planning Commission at a special meeting to obtain a last-minute permit.
