The Carnivàle Experience


tight rope

Your Carnivàle Experience begins with three magnificent and world-class shows:

The Big Top Main Event Starring Cirque Maroc

The Ten-In-One Show Starring Carnival Diablo

Tropical Terrors Starring the Great Snakes of the World

But there is so much more to the fantastical world of Carnivale Lune Bleue! Every ticket also gives you access to the authentic 1930s carny midway and our Congress of Wonder museum. The Carnivàle Lune Bleue Cookhouse will also offer you exquisite fine-dining and authentically-themed dishes.

The 1930s Carny Midway

Picture yourself walking down our gritty 1930s carny midway.

With your heart still pounding, you’ve just stepped off an authentic 1917 Ferris wheel. You walk down the main avenue, dazed by the experience. The 1938 Allan Herschell carousel, the overhead lights, and the bright, wonderful banners that hang over nearly every attraction capture your imagination.

To your left a clairvoyant entices you with predictions about your future love life. To your right you notice a barker offering to show you ten of the most bizarre sideshow acts on earth.

A man beckons from a darkened tent. He offers to let you see and touch giant, man-eating snakes from around the world. A young couple walks out of the tent, seemingly chilled to the bone.

Up ahead, finally, you see the enormous Big Top, where expertly trained performers dazzle their audiences with death-defying grace and ease.

The Congress of Wonders Museum

At Carnivàle Lune Bleue you’ll have the chance to step into our vintage showcase and behold the world’s greatest natural marvels and curiosities! See the animals and monsters that have been cursed by the power of nature itself – some of the most vile and disgusting beasts and insects to ever walk the Earth!

The natural history display will house a variety of specimens guaranteed to pique your curiosity. Be intrigued by the Turtle-boy and horrified by the sheer size of our Mastadon skull, or the spear-like tusk of the narwhal! We’ve got it all!

Spread throughout the Congress of Wonder will be signage explaining the history of these displays, and the role of the carnival in 1930s life. There will also be a section showcasing artifacts related to the Conklin family of Conklin Shows, the biggest amusement provider in Canada since the 1920s, with a large display of black and white photography related to their incredibly rich history and connection to the carnival spirit. And don’t forget to visit the areas dedicated to vintage rides, penny arcades, and carny games, the authentic doctor’s wagon, all highlighting the ever transient life of the carny.

Take a sneak peek at some of the artifacts that the Congress of Wonders will feature in this video clip from Daytime on Roger’s TV, with Carnivàle Lune Bleue’s Johnny Meah!
