“It’s going to be something like you’ve never ever seen,” provincial circus chairman Stu Larson said.
“This is the biggest actual freestanding tent in the world. It seats 3,000 people. It’s huge … football-field size -- 71 feet high and almost 200 feet across.”

This year marks the 250th anniversary of the Zerbini circus family and the 59th year the circus has come to P.A. As a result, audiences can look forward to some special treats this year.
“This is the first year in 20 years that we’ve had cats,” Larson said.
“So there’s going to be tigers and lions, and that’s something that hasn’t happened in Canada in many years.”
