Honest Review of The Circus
We went yesterday
TLDR: Worth it
But
Lets start with the cons first
- No assigned seats - so GO EARLY and on a WEEKDAY It was so packed yesterday. They had overbooked. Wala ticket number seating system or trained ushers. There are sections that say VIP, bronze but no ones checking your ticket actually so feeling namon naka sneak ang iban sa sections that are not for them
They had overbooked/oversold tickets without a number system so ang na tabo rambol for seats. People who had paid for the priciest tier actually did not get the best seat or the seats that they paid for. A friend had paid for 15 tickets for VIP but when he got there - the VIP section was full! NOT very VIP.
Some people like us (gold tier) had to sit in the aisle . some had to sit on the floor (only in the second half na gaan chairs).... but it was a sort of upgrade because gin butang kami beside the VIP area due to lack of space.
VERDICT: Paying for the priciest tier isnt that worth it. Wala guaranteed/numbered seats and some people can "steal" your seats The tent is also small so you'll also get a good view from the cheapest seats. Bakal lang sang pinakabarato na ticket.
- A little basic
Like some other redditors said - the circus is a little underwhelming. Lots of dance numbers. lol Final act is super boring! BUT
PROS
Super enjoy ang mga kids and adults in general. Everyone was laughing and having a great time. Your kids will super enjoy the experience so it is definitely worth it to go para ma experience nila na nakakadto circus.
I mean, it's the first circus in Bacolod for decades since the Royal London Circus 30 years ago
