THANK YOU!
Thank you to everyone who came out to support us on our 2026 Illinois Waterway Tour from St. Louis to Chicago. We're grateful to all the towns, local organizations, businesses, and individuals that hosted, housed, helped, and fed us along the way! This year was probably our strongest show yet, and we had such an amazing time. Thank you for being part of it!
We're catching our breath, but are already making plans for next summer. For 2027, we've got our eyes on the Tennessee and Cumberland Rivers - stopping in Knoxville, Chattanooga, Huntsville, Decatur, Florence, Paducah, and Nashville - plus a bunch of other places. If you live or have contacts along this route, please reach out: info@rivercircus.com

WHAT IS FLOTSAM RIVER CIRCUS?:
Flotsam is a troupe of musicians, circus performers, and puppeteers who travel on a ramshackle raft, giving free performances in waterfront towns. Our goal is to bring some magic and whimsy to the world while helping communities engage with their waterways. Since 2019, we have covered nearly 3,000 miles of river, performing in 15 different states. Eventually, we want to bring the project to rivers all across the world.
