Flotsam River Circus Downtown

  • When: Saturday, August 22, 2026,  6:30 pm
  • Location: 446 N. Lenore K. Sullivan Blvd., St. Louis, MO 63102
  • Cost: Free but donations appreciated

Flotsam is a troupe of musicians, circus artists, and puppeteers who travel on a handmade raft, giving free performances in riverfront towns along the way.

We'll be performing at the St. Louis Riverfront, just South of the Eads Bridge - near Gateway Arch Park. Look for the most unusual 'boat' on the water — that's us!

Our show is family-friendly, but intended for audiences of all ages. The performance starts at 6:30 pm and will be finished before 8:00. Bring a blanket or lawn chair, and come early for a good spot! NOTE: the cobblestone levee is uneven and may be steep for some people. There is a flat area along the top of the levee that is more accessible for wheelchairs.

The show is free to attend, but we keep this project afloat through donations. We suggest $10–$25 per person. Cash is welcome, or you can Venmo us at @rivercircus. We are a 501c3 non-profit, and all donations are tax-deductible.

The troupe performs from a raft mounted on a pontoon boat, combining music, acrobatics, juggling and a post-apocalyptic story about mutant fish and the last surviving humans.
