Chaoyang Acrobatic Show

Chaoyang Acrobatic Show

The acrobatic show at Chaoyang Theatre is a thrilling hour-long show performed by talented Chinese acrobats and circus performers. The show is a good evening activity for those who want to see something exciting and different after a day of sightseeing in Beijing.

Highlights and Travel Tips

The Chaoyang Acrobatic Show is one of the best shows to see while you are in China. It appeals to all ages, from young children to adults. It is very visual and the show’s performers demonstrate extraordinary feats of skill and fitness in a variety of breathtaking (and sometimes frightening!) acrobatic acts. It is comparable to many international circus shows but at a much lower price.

The price for tickets depends on the position of the seats you choose. The front rows and the back rows are cheaper, while the center rows are more expensive. That said, the auditorium is quite small and the stage is perfectly visible from practically any seat, so it is not necessary to purchase the more expensive tickets. If you don't mind sitting close to the stage, rows 1 to 4 are both economical and ideal for experiencing the thrilling show up close.

The show is well-known among foreign travelers and is also widely visited by Chinese people. It is popular among larger Chinese tourist groups, which can sometimes make the theatre a little noisy. After the show, there are performers selling video copies of the show in the lobby, and you can take a photo with them.
