Location: SE Louisiana | I saw a video on Youtube several years ago of a performance something like this but this seems to have added features like the Spelbound gymnastics team with a Gypsy theme and a few other things. I'd LOVE to see this!! |

Location: SE Louisiana | N/P Kaycee.. It's about all I'm good for.... I did a search for this coming to New Orleans and nothing....I don't think they realize how much money is just waiting for them here.. This kind of show would go over BigTime in this area. |

I wonder how it is going over here in the Dallas area, too? I have seen tons of advertisement so I would guess the attendance is good. I hope it is because I want shows like this coming here. They set up this big top tent in an area of North Dallas that is heavily populated and a pretty expensive area in which to live. I do have to snicker when I hear that Frisco is THE place because I grew up very close to there in the 70's and 80's and believe me back then it was not even close to being posh! It was actually a bit dangerous. Goes to show any area can become THE place to be.  |

Well New Orleans has the French Quarter and all the fine music, but it's also an oil town and there is a lot of money floating around here and the outlying areas. |

I agree - I have also attended Cavalia with the VIP package. Beautiful and amazing show and experience. Loved, loved, loved our evening. |

Location: nj | I loved it when I saw it. funny i was just thinking of this early today. There is a facebook page CHW network that places horses from a local sale that are headed for the kill pen - there is a team of 12 white arabs there tonight from a circus that will go though the sale. I wonder where they came from.

Location: N Texas | I went the last time it came to Dallas, which was about 10 years ago. I didn't think I was going to get to go this year because everyone who originally wanted to go balked at the price. Well a couple days ago, my husband surprised me with tickets for this Saturday!! He's not really a horse person, so I was really surprised and am super excited to go since I don't know when (or if) they'll ever come back to Dallas.
It is an AWESOME show. Extremely well done and the horses are so impressive with the level of training they have. You won't be disappointed! |

Location: Red Raiderland | We got our tickets for Sat. 21st 2pm showing. We did get the VIP pass so hopefully what they have for the buffet will be hardy enough for lunch. Do any of y'all remember how long the show is? I could not find it on the website. |

I believe the show itself is 2 hours, but there is a 30 minute intermission. So a total of about 2.5 hours. |
