THE VILLAGE OF ADDISON PRESENTS CARSON BARNES CIRCUS AUG. 20 -22

Super Saver Tickets on Sale Now – Benefit 18 Service Organizations & Churches

The Village of Addison will bring the Carson Barnes Circus to Addison this summer, and 18 Service Organizations and Churches will reap the proceeds from pre-sales of tickets, on sale now.

The circus will be held at Indian Trail Junior High School, 222 N. Kennedy Drive, on Friday, Aug. 20 through Sunday, Aug. 22.

Super Saver tickets can be purchased now for any of the seven shows, for $25 each. These tickets will admit two adults and 3 children, ages 2 – 11. Ticket order forms can be obtained from any of the 18 organizations selling tickets. Tickets at the gate will be $22 per adult and $10 per child, so the Super Saver ticket allows an entire family to enjoy the circus at a reasonable price, said Mayor Larry Hartwig.

“Community Days could not be held due to the cost, so we are happy that we have something fun and affordable to offer our residents this summer,” said Mayor Hartwig. “And at the same time, our local organizations can raise money.
