The Circus by the Numbers

Posted under Blog on April 29, 2009

Last night, Britney announced that she's extending her 'Circus' Tour for eight more European dates.

Have you ever wondered what goes into making a production as dazzling as Britney's concert?  Just a few of the staggering statistics include:

  • Nearly 50 dancers, magicians, clowns, and acrobats
  • A traveling staff of over 200
  • $50 million
  • 60 tons of equipment
  • 34 trucks
