Cirque De Paris arrives at Promenade Saucon Valley this summer with an all-new production featuring performers from across the globe. This isn’t a corporate circus spectacle — it’s an intimate, family-run show directed by Anouchka Bouglione, continuing her family’s 200-year legacy of European circus tradition. The 380-seat big top creates an up-close experience where every seat offers a clear view of the incredible acts.
The 2026 production is entirely new and has never been performed in the United States before. You’ll witness acts making their North American debut, including The Supka Family Juggling Troupe and Duo Nava’s brand-new aerial straps performance. From Kostiantyn Tsymbal’s record-breaking BMX trial riding to Anastasiia Maksymchuk’s aerial hammock silk act, each performance brings something you won’t see anywhere else.

What Makes This Show Different
Director Anouchka Bouglione hand-selected each performer for this production. None trained in traditional circus schools — these are artists who learned their crafts through family traditions, personal dedication, and years of refinement. The result is a show that feels personal and genuine rather than manufactured.
The production features Reinaldo Monteiro’s custom laser light show, designed specifically for this tour. His technical direction, along with contributions from Noah Bouglione Monteiro, creates visual moments that complement each act without overwhelming the performers’ skills. The focus stays on human achievement, not special effects.

The Venue Experience at Promenade Saucon Valley
The big top is set up at Promenade Saucon Valley, easily accessible from Route 309 and Interstate 78. Free parking is available throughout the run. The venue location offers convenient access to nearby restaurants and shopping if you want to make an evening of it.
Inside the tent, traditional circus seating puts you close to the action. The 380-person capacity means this is an intimate setting compared to arena shows. The tent provides ventilation and fans to keep air moving during the performance. Arrive early to choose your seats and soak in the pre-show atmosphere as the tent fills with families and circus enthusiasts.
Planning Your Visit
Shows run approximately 90 minutes with an intermission. The performance is suitable for all ages, though children who can sit through a feature film will get the most from the experience.
Center Valley’s location in the Lehigh Valley puts you within reach of several local attractions. Before or after the show, you might explore the nearby Lehigh Valley Mall, grab dinner at one of the many restaurants along Center Valley Parkway, or visit DeSales University’s campus just down the road. For families staying in the area, the Crayola Experience in nearby Easton offers a full day of activities.
Why This Run Matters
With 18 performances scheduled, this is one of the longer engagements on the tour. The extended run gives the cast time to settle into the venue and refine their performances, meaning later shows often feature moments of spontaneity and connection that only develop when performers are comfortable in a space.
Cirque De Paris represents a different approach to circus entertainment. You won’t find animal acts or overwrought theatrical production numbers. What you will find is skilled performers doing remarkable things with their bodies and equipment, presented in a setting that lets you appreciate the years of training behind each moment. It’s circus filled with nostalgia down to its essential appeal: humans doing extraordinary things while you watch from just a few feet away.
