The ghost of Royal Hanneford Circus

In a previous article, I mentioned the conversion from Royal Hanneford Circus to the new Adventureland Circus, and noted that even the opening show guides still listed the old circus:

There does seem to be one Royal Hanneford remnant still in the park…

Royal Hanneford reference somewhere in the park in 2017.

Do you know where this is? Answer in the comments 🙂

2016 season almost done…

Adventureland’s calendar tells me the park is now in weekends-only mode, meaning there are just five more weekends to get to the park this year (plus the special one-day Oktoberfest event on October 1).

If you haven’t made your trip yet, time is running out. After the peak summer months, the park should be far less crowded.
