IT'S that time of year again - the circus is in town.

The nation's oldest touring circus, Lennon Bros Circus, is here to take you back to the good old days of live entertainment.

Run by fifth-generation brothers Geoff and Warren, Lennon Bros has a long history of bringing delight to young and old. Beginning as a buck jump show, the circus has evolved over the years to include sophisticated sights.

The next generation has begun training to take over as well, already performing for the circus's packed-out crowds.

Featuring a host of entertaining animals, the Lennon Bros circus is one of only two circuses in Australia still to include big cats in its program.

With two females and one male, the trio is a sight to behold. Also appearing will be ponies, monkeys, camels, mini donkeys and dogs.

There's plenty more to see as well, with all your favourite circus acts coming together under one big top.

Clever clowns will make patrons laugh, trapeze artists will have them in awe and the Wheel of Death will have them in wonder.

All this is crammed into two hours of family entertainment.

So roll up, roll up for a time to remember with Lennon Bros Circus.
