A travelling show is an entertainment event that moves from place to place, usually featuring a variety of acts such as acrobats, clowns, and musicians. The two most common types of travelling shows are circuses and carnivals. A CIRCUS is a large-scale show that typically features trained animals, acrobats, clowns, and other performers. A CARNIVAL is a smaller-scale show that usually features rides, games, and food stands. Both circuses and carnivals are popular forms of entertainment for people of all ages.
