Campo alegre sur Paris

A superb show featuring magnificent horses trained by the Gruss family. Beautiful equestrian and aerial acrobatics. A warm and welcoming family atmosphere.

A very beautiful show. And a beautiful family story.

I've been going almost every year since I was little. So let's say 30 years. I could never give the Gruss Circus a bad review. It's too sentimental. But I have to admit, this 2026 show disappointed me a little. Where the horses are usually the focus and the set design and costumes are always incredible, I was let down. The tribute is a beautiful idea, but the backstage aspect detracts from the magic. There are fewer costumes, fewer poetic acts with the horses. I feel like they've been relegated to the background, which is why we come. The musical aspect works if you have singers. So yes, it's sweet seeing little girls paying tribute to their grandfather, but everyone has their own expertise. Anyway, it's still a good time. It's sentimental for me at this point, but I hope that next year we'll return to the grandeur. It must be hard to reinvent yourself every year. That said, I remain a lover of their shows and a less successful year does not tarnish that in any way.

We had a wonderful time as a family. Thank you to all the artists and everyone who worked behind the scenes. The Gruss family is beautiful and evokes wonderful emotions. All the best to you all.

Gorgeous!!! The best place in Paris

Such a special show. This was my first time seeing a family-run circus and I was so impressed with the talent across the generations. Everyone had multiple skills and talents - the clowns did ariel stunts! A juggler did acrobatics and could sing! Acrobatics on horseback! Beautiful ariel work! Live music! Silly clowns! Dirt on my shoes kicked up by the horses (we had front row seats)! I don't speak French, so I missed some of the storyline, but the clowns were still funny and the tribute to the matriarch and (it seems) recently deceased patriarch of the family were touching and heartfelt.

It was good, but I was expecting more spectacle and more impressive acts.

A remarkable show in a very comfortable big top.

A magnificent show. Very moving. Bravo to the wonderful Gruss family! We highly recommend this show.

What a fantastic time!!!! Bravo to the entire Gruss family who presented us with a truly beautiful tightrope walking and equestrian show. Humor and emotion were also present. Congratulations to the whole family. A minor complaint about the pre-show catering. There was a delay in taking our aperitifs, the main course was cold, and the service was so slow that we (like several other tables) had to go to the show without having had dessert. Dessert was offered to us again after the show (it was the least the manager could do to make up for the service fiasco). A real shame. The Gruss family needs to sort out the catering management quickly because they really excel at it afterwards... Thank you to them for this lovely show and our Valentine's Day. One star less due to the catering.
