Circo Osorio Circus in Vancouver
Circo Osorio isn’t a Vancouver-based theatre company. What it is, though, is a fun circus that travels to various Lower Mainland cities each year. Kids love it!
The circus typically stops in four or five places in Metro Vancouver in the summer and fall. It also stops in a number of other places in BC, including on Vancouver Island. Circo Osorio offers a fun, affordable experience that’s also very family-friendly.
In 2026 the circus is in Tsawwassen in August, on Vancouver Island for most of September, and then in Abbotsford, Richmond and Coquitlam in October.

About Circo Osorio
Circo Osorio is a family-owned operation that has wowed audiences across North America for over two decades. The Latin-inspired circus doesn’t feature any animals. Instead, all the focus is on the talented human performers.
The shows are fun, loud and provide lots of excitement. There are acrobats, motorcycle riders, contortionists and other kinds of entertainment. Many of the performers are from Mexico or South America, with others from Canada, the United States and elsewhere around the world.
The circus travels to many different locations across North America, including in British Columbia.
The Big Top tent seats around 650 to 700 people and the action takes place on a raised stage (which makes things easy to see for everyone). There are even some acts that bring volunteers from the audience up on the stage!
The shows run for a bit over an hour with a 15-minute break in the middle.

Ticketing Details
As of the summer of 2026, tickets to see Circo Osorio perform cost $30 for adults (which is everyone over the age of 10). That’s the price when you book in advance online. Tickets purchased at the gate cost about $5 extra.
