Anastasini Circus (Italian: Circo Anastasini) is an Italian entertainment company founded in 1877 by Lugi Biasini, Girolamo Biasini, Sidonia, and Antonia. It is currently one of the oldest circuses around.[1] The circus moved to the United States in 1980 when Renato and his family went to perform with Circus Vargas, the country's largest traveling circus under canvas at that time.[2]
The circus is currently in its 9th generation.[3]
