Hellzapoppin Circus Sideshow Revue is returning to Riot Fest for their 4th year. A world renown theatrical ROCK-N-ROLL circus stunt-show, Hellzapoppin has been a fan favorite at Riot Fest since 2013.

Some of the most deadly stunts in live entertainment are performed to a LIVE audience and rock music. Hellzapoppin appears regularly on national TV with Travel Channel, Discovery Channel, AMC and also with Ripley’s, Guinness Books of World Records and more!

Spectators will experience one of the world’s last authentic circus sideshows with performances using the human anatomy and death defying stunts of mind over matter, yet with no blood and no pain. This Vaudeville show of wonder features LIVE stunts like: Fire Eating, Fire Breathing, The Bed of Nails, The Human Block-head, The Razor Sharp Machete Walk, Acrobatic Stunts, Glass Eating, Sword Swallowing, Knife Throwing & Archery using human targets, The Famous Blade Box Illusion, Human Oddities & Curiosities such as a real-live half-man who walks on his bare hands on broken shards of glass and much more.

Check out the video below to see their performances in 2015 and come see Hellzapoppin Circus Sideshow Revue performing multiple times a day at both Riot Fest in Chicago and Denver.
