Thank you!!! You’ve got a great group of kids led by an incredible team! Happy Band Director’s Day!

Happy National Band Director's day to our very own Mx. Hinckle and Mr. James! 🎶

Thank you for helping to hit the right notes, on and off the stage. For always giving "one last time"—even if you mean it five times. For your endless patience, dedication, passion and keeping music alive in our schools.

May your coffee be strong and your intonation be flawless today.

We may be biased, but no one has it better than Baraboo with our band directors!

Some of our dream team of arts lovers attended a tour and Q&A session with the amazing folks of Fond du Lac County Prairie Theater and Event Center on the former UW Fond du Lac campus yesterday afternoon. What a fantastic example of how we could move forward with our dream of an on-campus arts center here in Baraboo! Thank you to all who made time for our field trip, and for our friends in Fond du Lac for being amazing hosts!

Three days to go.

In just a few short days, the Big Top will once again come alive with music, laughter, applause, sawdust memories, and the timeless magic of the circus as we begin our 67th summer performance season here at Circus World.

Behind the scenes, costumes are being pressed, props prepared, lights focused, animals cared for, and performers from around the world are rehearsing to bring joy to generations of guests who will gather beneath the canvas this summer.

For 67 seasons, families have made memories here together. Grandparents who once visited as children now return hand in hand with grandchildren of their own. That kind of tradition is something truly special, and we are deeply grateful to continue being part of so many family stories.

The countdown is officially on, and we cannot wait to welcome you back under the Big Top for another season of history, heart, and high-flying fun in Jubilee 250!.
