Silvers Circus is a household name in Australia and after nearly three decades on the road, it maintains all the sparkle, glamour and death defying acts expected of Australia's premier circus.

With acts including the Wheel of Steel, Master of Illusions, Ringmaster and Globe of Death there is something to entertain the whole family.

There will be six shows in Ararat running from Thursday, June 4 to Monday, June 8 at Centenary Park in Capp Street (off Tatyoon Road).

Readers of The Ararat Advertiser can win tickets to see this year's show, with five family passes (two adults and two children) valued at $120 each up for grabs for opening night on Thursday, June 4 at 7.30pm.

For your chance to win tickets, send or drop an envelope into The Ararat Advertiser office at 3 Ligar Street, marked 'Silvers Circus Competition' and include your name and telephone number on the back.

Winners will be drawn and contacted on Tuesday, June 2.
