A bit of magic is on its way to the north side of the river this season.
Across two weekends, the Piccolo Zoppé Winter Circus will again set up shop underneath the big top soon to appear at the corner of Bishop Lindsey Avenue and Magnolia Street in Argenta.
The traveling Zoppé family has brought lights, laughs and jaw-dropping feats to audiences the world over since 1842. The European circus show features high-flying acrobatics, equestrian acts and more, all within an intimate setting.

Performances correspond with Argenta’s annual Northern Lights Holiday Festival as part of the city’s growing lineup of holiday events alongside various seasonal shows, concerts, specials and the yearly North Little Rock Elks Christmas Parade.
The winter circus has already become a tradition for many in the area, and this year’s tour includes five cities across Arkansas: Russellville, North Little Rock, Hot Springs, Harrison and Greenbrier.
Argenta performances will take place Nov. 13-22. Learn more on the Piccolo Zoppé website, and keep up with the latest neighborhood happenings with NLR Tourism on Facebook and Instagram.
