From now until January 28th, the beautiful 1930s nostalgic wooden mirrored travelling European circus tent will become home to a spectacle of circus, cabaret, music, magic, comedy, and more, from astounding circus, magical stories of Neverland and the boy who never grew up, big music names and a Champagne fuelled adult cabaret Popcorn Underground.
Keep up with the latest in local news and entertainment here.
Nestled on the picturesque shores, Wonderland Spiegeltent by the Sea is not just a venue; it’s an experience. Boasting world-class performances, this unique venue plays host to comedy, acrobatics, aerial displays, circus acts, live music, and dance. More than just a show, it’s an intimate journey into a historic European setting, complete with stained glass windows and mirrors. Plus there’s a beautiful nostalgic ferris wheel too.
“Spiegeltent,” Dutch for mirror tent, has been a haven for stars like Edith Piaff and Marlene Dietrich for decades. The Wonderland Spiegeltent revives this tradition, offering a luxurious and exciting ambiance.
