Seating System
Each seat is 18 inches wide, 5 inches wider than a standard folding chair. Seats are directly adjacent to one another; patrons of size or families with children using lap seats (age 2 and under) should select seats carefully.

The illuminated stairs have railings and only a 4-inch rise, providing easier access to each row.

VIEW THE 2025 SEATING CHART

Special Needs Seating
Circus Juventas is able to accommodate standard wheelchair sizes only (30″ x 48″). If you would prefer to transfer to a chair upon arrival, please let the box office staff know.

We have floor seating available for patrons who do not use wheelchairs but who may find stairs difficult.  These seats are limited; we recommend purchasing these tickets A.S.A.P.

Wheelchair seating not yet reserved will be released to the general public by noon the day before the performance or once the section of the seating unit is sold out.

Parking

We recommend that patrons plan to arrive 45 minutes before the event time. The later you arrive, the farther you may have to walk!

There is free parking in the lot directly in front of the Circus Juventas arena, but it will fill up quickly! Designated handicap parking is located in this parking lot. Also in the area- a parks and recreation lot directly across Montreal Ave. from the arena, and the Highland Park pool parking lot on Edgecumbe Ave. There is free street parking on Montreal Ave. west of Edgecumbe and on Edgecumbe Ave. Please pay close attention to all posted signage. Please visit the St. Paul Snow Emergency page to see if any parking restrictions are in place.

Winter Weather Considerations
  • Coat racks will be available in the lobby.
  • Circus Juventas will be adding rugs to our lobby and walkways in the arena.
  • The driveway may be slippery, and we advise you to plan accordingly for footwear.

This winter, Circus Juventas will celebrate the wonders of the season in their annual holiday performance. Join us December 2025 as our advanced performers bring the magic of circus to your yuletide celebration!

As the forest creatures prepare for the great winter solstice celebration, a ripple runs through the frosted wood. Jack Frost has gone missing, swept away to the lair of the Summer Sorcerer, who is determined to usher in an age of eternal heat. Only the caretakers of the seasons can free Jack in time to stop the sorcerer and ring in winter. This December, flip, tumble, and careen through glittering woods and snow-dappled clearings on a holiday adventure to save the seasons as Circus Juventas presents the spectacular holiday production Solstice.

Solstice ran from December 5 – 14.

Scroll down to learn more about the ultimate night at CJ – the Blaze Balcony Experience.

Thanks to our presenting sponsors:

Perfect for families, friends, or festive gatherings, this premium experience includes seating for 12 and space for up to 6 additional standing guests (18 total). You’ll enjoy early arrival—up to an hour before showtime—through a private entrance, with three reserved parking spots just steps away.

Toast the season with a curated charcuterie spread from local favorite Platter to Plate, plus wine, beer, soft drinks, and signature seasonal snacks. Whether you’re clapping, cheering, or marveling at midair magic, the Blaze Balcony brings extra sparkle to your Solstice experience.

The Blaze Balcony package is $1,500, with an estimated fair market value of $1,000—meaning $500 goes straight to support the young artists of Circus Juventas. It’s an unforgettable night and a gift to the next generation of circus stars.
