Great Moscow State Circus

Great Moscow State Circus

The Great Moscow State Circus is one of the largest and most famous circuses in the world. It opened in 1971 and stands on Vernadsky Avenue in Moscow.

It is more than a circus — it is a complete artistic experience full of creativity and wonder, featuring world-class, award-winning artists. You will see amazing acts including acrobats, gymnasts, aerial performances, clowns and, of course, trained animals.

It is a stunning show unlike anything you have seen before.

The hall seats about 3,000 spectators, and the arena uses modern technology to change its floor in a short time, turning it into:

  • an ice rink
  • a water arena
  • an equestrian arena
  • a light-effects arena
  • or the traditional ring

Why is it worth visiting?

It is a wonderful place for tourists, especially if you are travelling with children.

The show is fun, lively and colourful, and you do not need to speak Russian — everything is visual.

Ticket prices

Tickets start from about 1,500 roubles, depending on the program and the seats.
