The golden age of circus is rolling into Dubai for a very limited run. Circus 1903 takes the stage at the Coca-Cola Arena on June 20, 21, and 22, 2025 — a critically acclaimed vintage-themed spectacular for the whole family.
What Is Circus 1903?
From the producers of The Illusionists and the award-winning puppeteers behind War Horse comes a groundbreaking new staging of a turn-of-the-century circus with a sharp contemporary theatrical edge. More than 30 world-class entertainers deliver 90 minutes of non-stop wonder: acrobats, knife throwers, contortionists, high-wire daredevils, and towering giant puppet elephants that will make you question what is real.
Meet Queenie and Peanut — a mother-and-calf elephant duo brought to life through stunning award-winning puppetry so lifelike audiences worldwide have been left speechless.

Why You Should Go
The dramatic staging, cinematic lighting, and remarkable puppetry make Circus 1903 far more than a standard live show — it is a time-travelling tribute to the golden era of circus artistry. No animals appear in the show; the elephant magic is achieved entirely through breathtaking theatrical craft.
With only five performances at the Coca-Cola Arena, this is a rare family event in Dubai that sells out fast. Book early.
