Circus Vargas will be pitching up its blue and gold tent in Roseville soon. The circus is coming to town at the Thursday, Aug. 9 through Monday, Aug. 13.

This year's Circus Vargas show will include a trapeze troupe, motorcycles, low wire, aerial artistry, juggling, balancing and a human rocket — the first in Circus Vargas history.

"We've created something really special here. It's like an Original Circus-Musical!," said Kevin Venardos, Circus Vargas' singing Ringmaster, in a news release. "Amazingly, and in a way different than I had once imagined, it represents another dream fulfilled. You never know how the pieces will fit together as the road bends over time. I am thrilled to be a contributor to this wonderful family tradition, and grateful for the chance to touch so many hearts."
