The Greatest Show on Earth® is coming to Tulsa’s new BOK Center. Nicole Feld, producer and executive vice president, said, "We are thrilled to be the opening family event in Tulsa’s new iconic arena. OVER THE TOP and Ringling Bros. are all about family. From the audience made up of children, parents and grandparents who come to see us every year, to the multi-generational circus artists performing in The Greatest Show on Earth."
Feld added, "To celebrate this very special occasion, we’ve created a commemorative opening night ticket. Everyone who purchases an opening night ticket will also receive this special keepsake ticket."
OVER THE TOP includes the biggest changes in 50 years of Ringling history! The performance area has opened up to an all-new expanded arena-wide floor space with more room for the animals and performers to perform. Plus, Ringling has brought the newest technology to the circus – stealth screens to bring the audience a new way to experience all the thrills. It’s current. It’s hip. And it’s all new!
