| About the Show Info Box | |
Royal Hanneford Circus came to Adventureland in 1997. It was originally located where the Kokomo Kove Store sits today. After the opening of Kokomo Kove in 2008, the circus moved to its current location in Outlaw Gulch. The original covered waiting shelter was turned in to the waterpark store.
When the circus relocated, it moved in to a smaller tent. Due to the expansion of the water park (with Adventure Bay backing right up to the circus trailer), there is no area for animals. As such, there are currently no large animal acts. In past years, there were horses and elephants, as well as dogs.
Trivia
Voice of P.T. Barnaby
For the past several years, the ringmaster, Billy Martin, has been the voice of the P.T. Barnaby animated figured at the Palace Theater on Main Street. He says he original recorded an "older man" voice, to fit the character, but Adventureland ended up going with Billy's normal circus announcer voice.
