The Circus Vargas spectacular opens at 7:30 p.m. Friday, Nov. 15, under a brand new big top tent outside the Antelope Valley Mall, located at 1233 Rancho Vista Boulevard in Palmdale. The animal-free circus production runs through Nov. 25.
Titled “The Greatest of Ease,” the 2019 production celebrates Circus Vargas’ 50th anniversary by paying homage to the golden era of circus in America.
“All aboard our spectacular circus steam engine as we ride the railways back in time to relive the nostalgia of yesteryear. Marvel at the sights and sounds emanating from the big top, just as audiences did decades ago… Run away with the circus for two unforgettable hours of nonstop action and adventure, as we transport you back through the ages of circus history and tradition,” organizers said in a news release.
General admission tickets begin at $15 for children and $25 for adults. Reserved, VIP and ringside seating are available for an added price.

Spectators who arrive 30 minutes early to a show will be treated to an entertaining, interactive pre-show celebration, where kids can learn circus skills such as juggling, balancing and more. Spectators also will get to meet and mingle with the entire cast after each performance, and can capture the fun by posing for pics or selfies with their favorite cast members.
East Lancaster Resident says
For circus entertainment, just watch a Lancaster city council meeting. With clowns to his left, jokers to his right, here we are stuck in the middle with Rex.

The elephant is the Republican Party mascot.
The elephant is a main feature of a circus.
Elephants leave HUGE messes behind in both cases.
