Travis Pastrana's Nitro Circus Live Coming Back to The Venetian Macao - Action sports spectacle returns to Cotai Arena with brand new show Aug. 9-10. The heart-stopping Travis Pastrana's Nitro Circus Live will soar through the air of The Venetian® Macao's Cotai Arena again this year, bringing a brand new death defying spectacular to Macao with shows on Aug. 9 and 10. Tickets go on sale Wednesday, June 25 at all Cotai Ticketing™ box offices*.
Nitro Circus' debut at the Cotai Arena last August was the first of its kind in Macao, astounding audiences with two heart-pulsing action sports shows. With extreme sports legend Travis Pastrana, founder of Nitro Circus, joining the upcoming Macao performances, fans will surely not want to miss the return of Nitro Circus this August.
“This tour is the biggest and most audacious action sports production ever staged,” says Pastrana. “This is truly an exciting, adrenaline-charged, live action sports show featuring an insane group of athletes who push each other to new extremes every single show.”
Fresh from sell-out tours of Europe, North America, South Africa and Australia, the Macao shows will be the first time the group of daredevils are setting their legs in Asia for their 2014 tour, giving Asian audiences the chance to see the stunning all-new show, painstakingly developed over the past five years. Macao fans will be treated to a newly designed, multi-million dollar set with unbelievable features that are debuting on this tour. For the first time in Nitro Circus Live history, the show will be going 'retro,' with the entire performance choreographed and styled as a 1920s, Barnum & Bailey style circus.

The tour brings together the greatest action sports cast ever assembled, including current X Games FMX Silver medallist Adam Jones, as well as X Fighters champion Josh Sheehan. On the BMX side, the world's only triple backflipper, James Foster and the man who invented the trick, Jed 'The Warrior' Mildon of New Zealand, will both be showing their skills in Macao. The 10 other members of the star-studded BMX crew will throw down brand new tricks never before seen in Asia.
In addition, fans in Macao will also see the unbelievable 'Hole in One' where riders launch 50 feet into the air off the Gigant-A-Ramp and attempt to land with pinpoint accuracy inside an inflatable zorb ball. Then add in a host of mind-bending new tricks on a cavalcade of ridiculous, never-before-seen contraptions off the jacked-up Nitro Gigant-A-Ramp, which is 10-feet bigger, and launches riders up to 20-feet further than ever before.
Nitro Circus Live showcases over 40 of the world's best action sports athletes performing daring and often record-breaking tricks in freestyle motocross, BMX and skateboarding, along with heart-stopping stunts on unique contraptions rarely attempted outside of the Nitro Circus family. Featuring the stars of Nitro Circus' hit TV show and the 3-D Nitro Circus film, the tour was founded by action sports legend, Travis Pastrana, a 10-time X Games gold medallist.
