About UniverSoul Circus

UniverSoul Circus is not your traditional circus. Founded in Atlanta in 1994 by entertainment industry veteran Cedric Walker, UniverSoul was built from the ground up to reflect and celebrate Black and multicultural audiences — and it has grown into one of the most beloved touring live entertainment events in America. What started as a single-city production in Atlanta has toured dozens of major U.S. markets over three decades, consistently selling out performances and earning a ferociously loyal fanbase.

The show blends high-flying acrobatics, aerial silk performers, motorcycle daredevils, contortionists, comedic clowns, and live musical performances into a two-hour spectacle unlike anything else on the live entertainment calendar. The audience is never a passive observer — interactive moments, call-and-response energy, and crowd participation make every performance feel like a community celebration as much as a circus act.

Atlanta holds a special place in the UniverSoul story. This is the city where the circus was born, and returning to the Atlanta metro area is always a homecoming. The Gwinnett Place Mall location plants the big top tent in the heart of one of the most diverse communities in the entire Southeast, making the show's multicultural mission feel as relevant today as it did when Walker first raised that tent in 1994.

What to Expect at UniverSoul Circus – Gwinnett Place Mall

Gwinnett Place Mall, located along Pleasant Hill Road in Duluth, Georgia, is a familiar and accessible landmark in one of Atlanta's most vibrant suburban corridors. The circus sets up its massive signature tent directly on the mall grounds, transforming the site into a genuine big top destination. The parking situation is straightforward — the mall's expansive surface lots provide ample space for families, groups, and solo attendees arriving by car.

Inside the tent, expect a full arena-style seating experience with tiered sections giving audiences strong sightlines to every act on the floor. The atmosphere from the moment you walk in is charged — music thumps, performers warm up the crowd, and the energy builds progressively throughout the show. Families with children, date-night couples, friend groups, and multi-generational families all share the space, and the show plays equally well to every age group in the audience.

Concessions, merchandise, and pre-show entertainment on the midway add to the full-day experience. Plan to arrive at least 30–45 minutes before showtime to take in the full atmosphere and secure your seats comfortably.
