(Seguin) – Spring Break week in Seguin just got more “Spectacular” with the arrival of the circus. The Carden International Circus proudly announces The Spectacular Circus tonight and Thursday at the Seguin Events Complex Rodeo Arena. Leading the three-ring circus will be Ringmaster “Lucky” Malatsi.

Malatsi says families won’t be disappointed with all the thrills and fun being brought to Seguin these next two nights.

"We have all kinds of excitement. We have animals. We have international performers. You name it. We have it. We are Carden International Circus with an emphasis on International because we have performers from all over the world. We are talking about South Africa, Brazil, Mongolia, and Mexico -- all over the world. It's a one-of-a-kind special show with a special message that we have. So, we want the whole entire family to come out and check it out. As you said, it's Spring Break!" said Malatsi.

For over 60 years, the Carden family has brought together talents found all over the world. These acrobats, aerialists, dare-devils, and clowns are described as real-life masters of gravity, purveyors of jaw-dropping stunts, and maestros of airborne artistry.

The ringmaster also says doors will open one hour before show time for the preshow festivities including performer meet and greets, animal rides, interactive fun and much much more.

"We tell people to come in an hour before the show so they can enjoy all the fun rides, activities, face painting, the kids can ride the elephants, the ponies, the camels -- you name it, we've got it, "said Malatsi.

Tickets are $10 for children 12 and under and $25 for adults. Malatsi also adds that for a limited time only, adults can pay just $9.99 while supplies last.

“Usually every year, there are about 1,700 and 2,000 participants that play volleyball and I’m excited to see what our new court will inspire,” said Taft.

Registration for the youth league runs through the end of this week. Taft says the league gets underway on March 25 and runs through May 6.

Taft is encouraging as many kids as possible to sign-up. She says with the sport being new for local kids, she is hoping that families give it a chance.

“If your child is on the fence, I’d encourage them to try it. It’s lots of fun,” said Taft.

The cost is $55 a child.
