which definitely qualifies as indoor.
but i am sure that none of them have been as strange as Wood's Pandemonium Carnival.  |
The one I went to as a child was in Blackpool Tower (picture below). It was a Big Top performance, the kind of Barnum & Bailey routine, with performing animals and the like (which always disturbed me, even as a child). But there were, from time to time, outdoor Big Top Circuse's that came to my area, and that I never attended. Those were under actual Canvas tents, with sawdust on the floor and the like. What we actually got a lot of was Travelling Fairs, and still do to this day, with rides and goldfish in little plastic bags and shoot the water into the clowns mouth.
Oh, and the "acts" on show at Wood's Pandemonium Carnivale are of the like that has never been seen before -- Roll Up! Roll Up!
