FLIP Circus Coming To Smith Haven Mall

LAKE GROVE, NY — FLIP Circus is set to hit Smith Haven Mall in Lake Grove for a week-and-a-half starting on Friday, according to a news release.

FLIP Circus aims to highlight the "enduring human spirit" in its shows, which are set to run from May 20 to 30 at the mall. The experience was created by the Vazquez family to celebrate the American circus tradition.

Tickets to FLIP Circus are on sale. Tickets start at $25 for children and $40 for adults with discounts available when purchasing online. Tickets will also be available in person at the box office during each engagement.

Circuses have been an American tradition for more than 200 years.

"With so much competing for our attention these days, FLIP Circus invites people to step away from their screens for an affordable, real-life entertainment experience they’ll never forget," the circus wrote in a news release. "World-class clowns, acrobats, jugglers and daredevils display their talents right in front of them as no audience member is more than 50 feet from the ring."

Italy’s Bello Brothers are set to weave side-splitting humor throughout the show which features a cast of circus superstars from across the U.S. and around the world.

"Hold your breath as the Globe of Death Motorcycles whiz and whir at breakneck speeds inside a steel ball," the circus wrote. "Marvel at the grace and strength of the Alexa Swing Pole act and Shirley Larible’s dazzling aerial strap act. America’s own Chicago AllStars astound with incredible acrobatics. Two of the world’s finest jugglers, Dede Larible and Luva, each present their own sensational style of this timeless art form. The multi-talented Bingo Troupe, direct from Ukraine, fills the tent with their lively energy and inspired performances, as the live FLIP Circus Band keeps the party going from beginning to end. FLIP Circus honors and celebrates authentic circus tradition and the human spirit in an event you won’t want to miss!"
