Ocala tickets from Loomis Bros. CircusWhat the Show Includes
On its about page, Loomis Bros. describes a traditional-format show with three rings, exotic animals and live music, led by singing ringmaster Justin Loomis. It lists a rotating program of juggling, dogs, rolla bolla, unicycles, motorcycle daredevils, aerialists and elephants, and says the show changes with each tour. Its ticket prices page adds that all acts are subject to change.
The PETA Demonstration on Nov. 2
In an Oct. 29 news release, PETA said supporters plan to set up a giant "crying elephant" outside the pavilion on Monday, Nov. 2, at 7 p.m. PETA is calling for an elephant it identifies as Okha, whom it describes as 56 years old and in poor health, to be retired to a sanctuary. Those are PETA's claims. On its about page, the circus says its animal performers receive "the best, loving care" around the clock.
