STERLING – The circus is coming to town!

Piccadilly Circus will be at the Double G Arena, 24236 Lincoln Road near the Walmart Distribution Center, on Wednesday. Show times are at 4:30 and 7:30 p.m.

Among its acts are the Elephant Extravaganza, featuring an elephant standing on one foot; Motorcycle Madness, with motorcycle daredevils somersaulting and spinning; contortionists known as the Mongolian Angels; the White Tiger spectacular; and, of course, aerialists and clowns.

An hour before each show, there will be a kids zone with pony rides, elephant rides and a bounce house for a charge, about $5 each, and a free petting zoo.
