A new one-of-a-kind Las Vegas-style circus tour is coming to Aberdeen and Inverness this summer.

Circus Vegas incorporates real daredevil stunts with traditional circus acts fit for the Vegas stage, where the show was conceived.

Crowds will be in awe of the performer’s skills as they carry out death-defying stunts including Duo Alambria, performing a high-wire act never seen before in Scotland.

The incomparable Didyk Troupe from Ukraine will perform on the acrobatic swing flying through the air, while the stunt riding team will take on the Globe of Death.

Watch as the riders experience G-force similar to a fighter pilot, as they loop vertically and horizontally all while encased in a mesh sphere.

For lovers of traditional circus acts and children, Edy the Clown, a legendary figure will be keeping the audience amused throughout the show.

Other acts include hair hanging, Diabolo manipulation, hula hoop, skating, and juggling.

The show runs for approximately two hours and is housed in a theatre-style Circus Big Top, which is climate controlled during the summer.
