Mr. Swindle’s Traveling Peculiarium and Drink-Ory Garden, the traveling entertainment experience that won over Florida audiences last year, is back with a bang!

It's not just a show; it's a wild ride of outrageous comedy, marvelous acrobats, and unexpected surprised that will unfold before your eyes under the boutique big top in Englewood, Florida.

The experience commences in the Drink-Ory Garden, which unlocks its gates an hour before the show kicks off. Here, guests are summoned to indulge in Dr. Elixir’s potent potions, enticing elixirs, and savory snacks. It's not just a prelude; it's a tantalizing taste designed to prep you for the intoxicating journey awaiting you under the big top.

Once you step into the temperature-tamed Peculiarium, prepare to be pleasantly appalled! The crowd is set to gasp, howl, and burst into fits of laughter, delighting in jaw-dropping feats and absurd comedy where predictability takes a vacation. The show, ever the shape-shifter, reinvents itself each year. So whether you're a seasoned aficionado or a first-timer, it's a perpetually new experience.

Expect more than a show–this is a rollercoaster ride of fantastic emotions intensified by the magnetic energy that fills the big top….it makes for an unreal and unforgettable experience that you have to witness to believe.
