Wiesbaden Christmas Circus

Clear the ring for the 12th Wiesbadener Weihnachtscircus: From December 18 to January 5, a completely new show full of magic and thrills awaits you at the Gibber Kerb fairground.

Wheel of death

The new circus season in Wiesbaden starts with a special kind of adrenaline rush: The "Double Wheel of Death" can be seen for the first time - a breathtaking highlight that will leave the audience holding their breath. The artists drive the speed to dizzying heights and transform the circus ring into a pulsating center of excitement.

The "Splitting Globe", a motorcycle sphere that opens up a view into a steel circle measuring just five meters in diameter, also causes a sensation. Inside, stunt riders race through the narrow space and perform maneuvers that can normally only be experienced in the cinema. Wiesbaden has never seen this performance before.

The "Duo Ilusión" provides a contrast to the roaring engines and high speeds. The two artists perform a show that combines precision, body control and enormous strength on two strapats suspended in the dome. With graceful movements and acrobatic perfection, they create moments of almost weightless elegance.

The classic clowns provide light-hearted hilarity, making children and adults alike laugh with traditional humor, gentle jokes and lovingly exaggerated gestures. But the program offers much more: a variety of other artistic highlights combine traditional circus art with modern lighting effects, creating an atmosphere that is both nostalgic and contemporary.

It's not just in the circus ring that the festive atmosphere prevails: in the large, heated foyer tent, visitors can enjoy a wide range of food and drink in a Christmas atmosphere. Lovingly decorated stalls, warm lights and numerous Christmas trees invite you to linger an hour before the show begins - and afterwards too. This makes the show an experience for the whole family, captivating circus enthusiasts and newcomers alike.
