The Circus Juventas Big Top

The Circus Juventas big top lobby.The Circus Juventas front lobby. The design, by Locus Architecture, won an AIA Honor Award.

The Circus Juventas facility is a one-of-a-kind structure that is located on a beautiful site near the Highland Park golf course on the bluffs above the Mississippi River. The pre-engineered structure is comprised of a clear span of steel beams over which a fire-resistant vinyl-coated polyester fabric is placed in tension to create a permanent "Big Top."

Architecturally unique, the tension membrane system combines the best features of many types of construction and is economical, durable and adaptable. The geometry of the structure provides strength and rigidity without internal supports - a feature essential to the Circus' needs.

The internal clear span area is 21,000 sq. ft.

This multi-purpose circus arena includes an open and playful lobby and concession area with circus design elements and an immense rehearsal/ performance space that can be made available for private events. Bordering the performance area are the public rest rooms, management office, and the men and women's dressing rooms complete with showers and theatrical prep areas. Outside the locker areas are student study areas and a prep kitchen. A dedicated parking lot services circus patrons and performers.
