Aptly named The Circus – presented by Weber Bros Entertainment – has set up in Dalton Drive, Maroochydore, on the final stop of a national tour.

The Human Cannonball is one of the death-defying acts in The Circus.

For the next couple of weeks until November 26, the Sunshine Coast will play home to the seventh-generation entertainment group led by Harry Weber, his wife Marie and their eight children.

The family members are also the stars of a hit reality TV show The Circus, currently streaming on Hayu.

The reality TV show provides a rare glimpse into the captivating world of a travelling circus and its day-to-day antics and dynamic adventures under the big top.

Patriarch Harry said he was excited for the region to experience the adrenaline-pumping, family-friendly, two-hour show.

The region will feature in an upcoming TV episode as The Circus rounds out the national tour.

“Imagine the thrills of a live performance combined with the behind-the-scenes chaos of a reality TV show, and you’ve got The Circus. Expect the unexpected,” he said.

The Globe of Death is a crowd-pleaser.

“We’ve compiled some of the most extraordinary and world-class acts that will have guests on the edge of their seats, including daring FMX riders, captivating aerialists, the crowd-favourite splitting Globe of Death and the awe-inspiring Human Cannonball.”

Weber Bros Entertainment is the largest touring circus in Australasia and has long held a strong commitment to bringing world-class, live circus performances to the nation.
