FSU Flying High Circus

The FSU Flying High Circus was founded in 1947 as an extra-curricular activity to integrate men and women when FSU first became a co-ed institution. Its spellbinding performances and gravity-defying acts have been dazzling audiences for decades. More than 75 years later, the FSU Circus remains one of the most iconic student activities at Florida State.

The Flying High Circus relies heavily on donations to provide training for students, help them develop new skills, and continue to excite our community with their annual performances. The FSU Flying High Circus continues to grow and build upon its current foundation to ensure a permanent place on FSU’s campus. This new expansion will not only provide much-needed space for training but also ensure adequate storage, new space for events, room for circus-based classes through campus recreation and so much more! 

Your generosity will help the Circus continue to expand and provide unique opportunities for Florida State’s students.

Thank you for your support and 'May all your Days be Circus Days!'
