Trenton Circus Squad returns to Cooper’s Poynt Waterfront Park for its 2022 Big Top Tour, an annual residency which features eight free public performances by its Youth Squad members. Each summer, the group travels around New Jersey presenting daring feats by trained teen performers, including dazzling acrobatics, high-wire walking, and unicycle stunts. This year’s tour features a new Big Top Tent created by Canobbio Textile, an Italian company known for manufacturing tents for global circus powerhouse, Cirque du Soleil. Trenton Circus Squad aims to inspire young people across New Jersey to take big leaps in life through their free circus programs, where they learn how to cooperate, push themselves, and serve their community – all through the astonishing practice of circus arts.
