33 Ways You Can Support Big Top
Take a scenic drive up north and
find us at the top of Wisconsin
just outside of Bayfield. Enjoy the
convenience of free parking or free
local shuttle service, and the on-site
food, bar, and gift shop during
shows. 42 Volunteers: This Is Your Big Top!
More than just a performing arts
venue, we’re a non-profit with a
mission to celebrate history and the
environment through entertaining
and educational events. As a non-
profit, our shows go on each year
because of the support of ticket
buyers and the generosity of
hundreds of volunteers, donors,
and sponsors. We are truly an
organization of the community.
