Come see Flotsam River Circus in Geneva on Tuesday, August 13th!
Flotsam is a troupe of musicians, circus artists, and puppeteers traveling on a handmade raft, giving free performances in waterfront towns along the way.
We'll be performing at the Finger Lakes Welcome Center, at the beach just west of the visitor center. Just 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 7:00 pm and will be finished before 8:30. Bring a blanket or lawn chair, and come early for a good spot!
The show is free to attend, but we keep this crazy project afloat through donations. If you can afford it, we suggest a contribution of $10–$25 per person. Cash is welcome, or you can Venmo us at @rivercircus. We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit, and all donations are tax deductible.
Parking in the area is limited, so if possible, please carpool, bus, bike, kayak, or teleport. If you are considering arriving by boat, please note that our show is much better viewed from shore — and we ask that no boats position themselves behind us during the performance.
A HUGE thank you to Geneva and the Finger Lakes Welcome Center for welcoming us!
Geneva is just one stop on our 2025 Erie Canal and Hudson River tour. In conjunction with the Bicentennial of the Erie Canal, we’ll be traveling over 600 miles and performing in dozens of towns, all the way to New York City!

Hope to see you there — and please help spread the word!
