The circus has arrived in Pickering, with the sights and sounds of the ‘Big Top’ now in its second week at the Shops of Pickering City Centre.

The 2024 Royal Canadian International Circus brought its showcase extravaganza of daredevils, aerialists, human cannonballs and high wire acts to town July 4, with shows   at the mall all week until Sunday.
