Peking Acrobats brings the excitement and pageantry of a Chinese carnival with their daring maneuvers, powerful precision gymnastics, and mindbending displays of contortion and flexibility. This world-class, all-ages event adds beautiful costumes and high-tech special effects to create the epitome of a rich and ancient folk-art tradition imbued with the spectacle of a modern Chinese theatrical circus.

More than just a series of stunts, the grace and precision of Peking Acrobats’ sensational tumbling, comedy and balancing feats are the triumph of years of dedicated training and discipline. The artist-athletes hone to perfection the powerful harmony between mind and body, combining centuries of traditional folk art with extraordinary feats of skill and grace.
