Circus Vegas took the ‘difficult decision’ to cancel its remaining shows at Wexford Racecourse.<\/p>\n
Having arrived in Wexford just over a week ago and entertained lots of Wexford families in the meantime, Circus Vegas have announced that they are bringing their stay at Wexford Racecourse to a premature end and cancelling their remaining shows.<\/p>\n
The popular American circus, which has toured Ireland since 2012, announced that they were in the process of dismantling their big top having taken the \u201cdifficult decision\u201d to pull their remaining shows.<\/p>\n
The reason behind the cancellations and premature departure is the heavy weather which is heading for Ireland and Wexford, with ex-hurricane Humberto tracking towards Ireland, threatening strong winds and heavy rain by Friday.<\/p>\n
Met \u00c9ireann are currently tracking the storm as it makes its way across the Atlantic, but it is anticipated that it could have a significant impact on Ireland\u2019s weather for the coming days.<\/p>\n
At lunchtime on Wednesday, a status yellow wind warning was issued for the whole country, coming into effect at 12 noon on Friday and remaining in place until midnight on Saturday. A yellow rain warning was also in place for Donegal, Longford, Cavan and the provinces of Connacht and Munster from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Thursday.<\/p>\n
In a statement, Circus Vegas said: \u201cUnfortunately our time in Wexford has come to an early end due to the forecasted weather heading our way.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs a family and team we have come to the very difficult decision of cancelling the rest of our performances this week and we begin to pack down our big top.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is not an easy decision to make, however, there are too many risks involved and we are not prepared to take those risks as the safety of our customers and artists are always our priority. We hope everyone understands and we sincerely apologise for the inconvenience caused. Our team will be in contact with all customers within the next couple of hours.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Circus Vegas took the ‘difficult decision’ to cancel its remaining shows at Wexford Racecourse.
