Have you ever watched scenes from a circus in a movie? Touring performances Colourful candies, Red-nosed clowns, Stunt cars, Animals, fulfilling all your childhood fantasies! Australia’s Hudsons Circus is back on its 2024 tour. Although not as big as Cirque du Soleil, we find Hudsons’ performances are equally spectacular!
The experience
We watched Hudsons’ show in Robina, Gold Coast over the weekend. The venue was very cozy; and the content was very rich, with a full two-hour show and a 15-minute intermission. Suitable for children aged three and a half or four and above, as well as adults and seniors!
We booked late and only got seats in the first row on the side, but we would recommend seats in the centre first and second rows! The lighting, music, and atmosphere are all very well coordinated!
The clown performance is highly interactive, they spray water towards the first and second rows of the audience They invite kids to participate in tug-of-war They even invite adults to join in and pretend to be a funny band.
There are high-altitude acrobatics, fire-breathing and huge hula hoops, thrilling motorcycle stunts. Surprisingly, there’s even a teenager performing motorcycle stunts inside a sphere There’s a high-altitude trampoline spinning three and a half times.
The animal performances include horses, camels, and dogs. The kids said they liked the animal performances the most.
There are over a dozen staff members, all enthusiastic and infectious. Everyone has multiple roles, and it truly feels like hard work. It’s really worth it!
Although no filming is allowed at the venue, so no spoilers with performance photos here!
Only simple traditional snacks are available inside the tent, popcorn and soda. It’s recommended to have dinner before going.
