Astana Circus
Астана цирк
A circus building shaped like a flying saucer, often hosting acrobatics, animal acts, and trapeze artists. It is a weekend favorite for local families.
The Astana Circus building was completed in 2005. Its disc-shaped roof looks like a flying saucer that has landed beside the Ishim River, making it one of the most fun buildings on the left bank. The venue seats about 2,000. It stages acrobatics, clowns, trapeze acts, and more. There are also animal performances, so check the program if you have concerns. Performances are usually held on weekends. Tickets are inexpensive and can be bought in advance on the official website or through ticketing platforms. It is in the northern part of the left bank by the river, about 10 minutes' walk from the Triumph of Astana.
