    Note - for not "sold out" performances Circus Vargas will either perform abbreviated acts or remove acts in their entirety.

    After my older daughter saw the "Wheel of Destiny" or also known as the "Wheel of Death" performed at a previous Circus Vargas show in San Luis Obispo and couldn't stop talking about it, my younger daughter really wanted to go see it so we bought tickets for a Friday 4PM show. The show was roughly a third full and for some reason they decided to not perform the "Wheel of Death". I immediately told my daughter that they must have been sick which is why we didn't get to see it performed. Of course at the end of the show we performers who perform the "Wheel of Death" get introduced and they take a bow - even though they DIDN'T PERFORM. Of course we find out later that at the more well attended show later on they performed it (as well as the night prior). Pretty awful experience trying to explain to a kid why they didn't perform the headlining act...

    Good price, great time! Super talented people. I bought last minute tickets for me and my adult son and we still got great seats. We ate popcorn, drank lemonade and enjoyed ourselves immensely.

    Love this circus. The acts are amazing!! We got "VIP ring side" same day!!! Up close and personal! We are so amazed by these amazing talents. We saw some new acts and were blown away. I love that there is still a circus to go to. Kids and adults enjoying a hours of awesomeness!!! The concession food is good too. The kids love the snow cones as they come in a blinking light cup. You can also get popcorn, nachos, coffee, cotton candy... there was face painting also. The talent also does the concessions and face painting and bounce house so you can meet and greet on the intermission. I recommend this circus. Even for a date night!!

    Visit: Monday, August 2022 There was still a good amount of empty seats It was a cool day outside, but inside the tent it was pretty warm, the AC was no where to be found. You can purchase food outside the tent and inside before you actually enter the main tent. Every seat seems to be a good view of the stage however, if you sit further back, you can see the performers at the very top much better than those sitting directly in front of stage. Each performance was cool, they executed the end result even tho it took a few/several tries. Costumes were nice. It was thrilling, some comedic moments, fun for all ages.

    If you're craving some wonderous fun and excitement for all ages, cruise to the Roseville Galleria parking lot, in front of Macy's, for two hours of jaw-dropping, heart-stopping, adrenaline-packed talent. The Vargas circus is in town, and they are loaded with unbeliveable human capacity and star-gazing beauty. There are no animals involved, only the impressive abilities of the human body, team-work, and enough energy and enthusiasm to keep your feet stomping, your arms raised to the top of the tent and your voice zealously resounding with the playful clowns and the larger than life ring leader. The ring leader has an unfaltering voice of a champion. When he speaks, you listen. When he sings, you applaude him. You applaude the entire troop from start to finish and leave the performance with loads of conversation, satisfaction, and recommendations for others to also experience this awe and delight! Thank you, Vargas Circus, for all of your hard work and for enlivening us with smiles, amazement, and magic!

    Spectacular! Breathtaking! Exciting! The show was engaging and fun for all ages. My Husband and I were left shocked on more than one occasion and we could wait to grant the performers with a standing ovation. Wonderful, wonderful performance and we look forward to seeing you again soon! Special shout out to the Romanian performers, I was so proud to see you waving that flag! And all of you, thank you for bringing us so much joy. Our appreciation will never be enough to repay you for the magic you gave us this night.

    This was a great show for little ones. My 5 year old really enjoyed the show. We loved all the wonderful snacks.

    This was not fully honored... rip off.

    False Advertising - Buyer Beware Rip-off... the seats advertised as "general admission" seats for a low price are not the general seating at all... they are two small sections... the absolute worst seats on the far right and far left... the view of the stage is blocked by a giant pole. To get a regular seat... where your view is not blocked... they try to do an "up sell" at the box office... for twice as much. Rip-off!!! Also, they advertise discounts and don't honor them. Very deceptive. They advertise one free child admission for each adult admission. At the booth they did not honor this. The advertisement clearly says one free child "per adult" ticket. But at the booth they limited it to one for each advertisement you bring in. So if you have three children with you... they will make you pay full price for the second and third child. Or worse, give you no discount at all!!! I understand that the circus may be a hard business... but the solution is not to cheat the customer. Bottom line... if you want to pay $30+ per person - adult or child- to see a small traveling circus show, in a tent at the mall, go ahead. Then expect to pay way extra for everything else - like $4 for a bottle of water - your kids will be asking for. If you are expecting a good deal like they advertise, stay away. Before writing this review I spoke with a manager... thin with blondish hair and a nice customer service smile... I told her of my concerns about the false advertising. She just smiled and told me I was wrong! With the clear language of the promotion right in front of her she had the nerve to give me the customer service smile and tell me I was wrong. The worst. Update: i just looked at my credit card receipt. I was actually charged for four adult tickets. I received NO discount for the coupon. What a rip-off.

    Went a few days ago in Folsom. Show was about 2 hours long. Got the bleacher open seats for $22, the least expensive tickets, and it was still a great view! Seats were uncomfortable after about an hour in, so keep that in mind if you have a bad back. You might be able to bring in a seat cushion. They also offered a bit more expensive tickets for "better" seats down closer to the stage and possibly more comfortable. The show was great! I thought it was a good time and worth the money and there were some very talented acts! Good music, good lighting, a great production for a tent show. Definitely felt like a real circus. This was my very first "real" one and I'm glad I went. I wasn't quite sure what I should have been expecting but Circus Vargas really exceeded my expectations. There were some parts that felt a little drawn out and borderline annoying but they were few and far between. The overall experience made up for that. Thanks for visiting Folsom, Circus Vargas!

    I went to see circus Vargas today with my friend Alicia. It was at the mall in Citrus Heights California. What a spectacular show. The trampoline performers and the trapeze artists were the highlight of the show.

    Didn't know the hours. Wanted to take my daughter but there was no staff around 8pm. The website didn't display the hours of the show.

    Is there air conditioning in the tent?

    No there is not AC. There are fans that keeps the air moving, but it can get warm. We brought cold water and bought snow cones to help with that.

    November 11, 2025…read more First of all, a great 2025 Veteran Day to all. November 11, 1918 the eleventh hour Military time 1100 so eleven oh clock a.m. the treaty was signed, it ended the violence at that time. To all that served, to all those that are still serving, thank you! I represent USA Navy, but other branches are just as important! When the Military songs are played, yes I stood for Anchors Away for USA Navy! Update now one thousand three hundred eighty of any comments! After the Veteran Day 2025 parade, I went into Baked And Brewed. Cost $9.60 with tax instead $10.78 with tax because I pay cash instead using Crediting Cards! From there, went to an area that by way of Auburn State Theater is showing The Great Escape! The theater still being repaired, still being renovated! Therefore this movie sponsored by Auburn State Theater is being shown at this other location! Yes it is still sponsored by Auburn State Theater! Free popcorn other refreshments are a small cost! Many people did show up for this movie! Best of luck to this Auburn State Theater! My previous of this comment for Auburn State Theater has total thirty one USEFUL, FUNNY, COOL votes! Best of luck to the theater, to the employees, to the volunteers of this wonderful theater in town Auburn, California, that is Placer County! It will be nice when all the repairs and all the renovations are finished!

    The Auburn State Theatre is such a treasure…read more Built in 1930, the historic venue is a modification of its original version. Gone is the balcony seating and additional screens from decades before. It is now a singular 350-seat non-profit theatre run by friendly volunteers. As I write this, the theatre is temporarily closed for some needed repairs and restoration work. I seriously cannot wait until it reopens, as I come here pretty regularly with friends to enjoy the adventure documentaries that this theatre prominently features. The State Theatre is always super clean, the seats are comfortable, and there truly isn't a bad view of the screen anywhere you sit. Plus, the volunteers make really good popcorn and serve local beer and wine at reasonable prices - all to benefit this fantastic historic theater. I've seen several inspiring films here, but a recent screening of "Buried: The 1982 Alpine Meadows Avalanche" was particularly moving for me as it was also followed by a Q&A with not only the filmmaker but also a few key people from the documentary. I really look forward to seeing more amazing films at this historic theatre and encourage everyone to check them out when they reopen!

    When my kids first started here I was excited that they where trying something new and original…read more After several months of watching them in class I am less than enthusiastic about Free Flow. It's a great idea, but the execution is just meh. My kids spend most of the time standing around or doing what I would just be bored out of mind doing. Pros. Original idea, indoor, price is reasonable. Cons. Website is horrible, billing is ridiculously confusing, staff can be misleading with info over the phone. I think Free Flow could be great if they actually had someone who cares manage it. As a matter of fact I don't think it's actually managed by anyone.

    This gym is awesome…read more They officially opened up near the end of March and the minute I walked in and saw their setup I had to sign up. Four weeks later and I'm incredibly glad that I did. I'm currently taking parkour and kung fu classes with a few supplementary classes (flexibility, conditioning) that tie them together really well, so I'm there about five days each week. As often as I'm there I'm not even taking half of what they offer - dance, art, acting, film, tumbling and MMA-style martial arts are all taught as well. The staff is great, everyone is very friendly and the management's main focus is that everyone enjoys themselves and remain safe. The instructors are very knowledgeable in anatomy and kinesiology, so they're happy to offer explanations and detailed advice for specific movements and techniques. While they have a well-padded section of floor for martial arts and tumbling, the staff firmly believes in perfecting technique and progressing at a comfortable pace for real-world improvement, so a lot of the parkour training area is unpadded. Most of the work is also done barefoot in order to perfect technique and strengthen ankles and other necessary joints/muscles for such activity. Overall, Free Flow Academy is an excellent place to learn anything they can teach. I'm thrilled to have become a member so early on and I can't wait to watch it grow.
