Imagination Comes to Life at National Kids Fest June 11 – July 24

This summer Silver Dollar City’s National Kids Fest brings two new entertainment icons to the 1880s-style, internationally-awarded theme park, located in Branson, Missouri. The National Kids Fest runs June 11-July 24 and features new productions created for Silver Dollar City. One headliner is the circus great himself, Nik Wallenda, who is presenting the never-seen-before epic show, Nik Wallenda’s Zirkus. Another, for preschoolers, is Chuggington Adventure Depot, a fully-immersive interactive playland adventure that brings the hit animated series “Chuggington” to life with their favorite characters, locations and more.

Daredevils beware as excitement has few limits with seventh generation circus royalty and king of the high-wire Nik Wallenda taking center stage. The famous Nik Wallenda returns to Silver Dollar City approximately a decade after his record-breaking stunt the Iron Jaw, when he dangled by his jaw from a helicopter 200 feet above Silver Dollar City. This time, the Wallenda family brings a variety of talent as they perform great feats in the new Nik Wallenda’s Zirkus, which is ‘circus’ in their native German language. Created exclusively for Silver Dollar City, Nik Wallenda’s Zirkus showcases soaring acrobatics, aerial stunts, human pyramids, trick bicycling, and dangerous high-wire acts. The theme, says Wallenda, “The impossible is possible. We want to present an inspiring message that ‘I can do anything if I set my mind to it.’ We hope guests come to be impressed and leave inspired,” said Wallenda.
