Brian Boswell’s Circus, a household name in South Africa, has been entertaining audiences across the country with traditional circus fun for the past 29 years. The performances at the Rand Show will feature unforgettable acts by awesome animals, hilarious clowns and talented artistes.

Not to be outdone by their furry ‘colleagues’, Brian’s Circus’ talented artistes have a jaw-dropping lineup planned for the Rand Show. Don’t miss Eldavido, the death-defying Hu-man Cannonball. Marvel at the feats of the man of mystery and magic – Rashid. See dis-plays of agility and balance in daring aerial cradle trapeze, slack wire and aerial web dis-plays.
There’ll also be energetic acrobatic performances, a boa constrictor display, clowns up to all sorts of mischief, jugglers, and even some ‘pigs-in-training’ – if you’re lucky, and if they feel like it, these porkers might show you how they go down the slide.
