Dark in the Ballpark

Upside Aerial will be performing for Dark in the BallPark, the City of Burlington's Halloween celebration, on Friday October 29th, 5 to 8pm! This free event is fun for the whole family with costumes, trick-or-treating, dancing witches, and an awesome fireworks display at the end. Upside Aerial's portable aerial rig will be set up on the field at the Burlington Athletic Stadium (a 3,500-seat outdoor venue with plenty of room to spread out for COVID safety). 

FOR UPSIDE AERIAL STUDENTS & PERFORMERS:

We love providing opportunities for our students to perform in front of live audiences. Our Fall Showcase performers are welcome to repeat their showcase performance for this event. If you didn't perform in the showcase but still want to participate, be sure to have a sequence ready! You are also welcome to just come and hang out with your Upside Aerial Family and help us with setup and breakdown. If you are performing, you can either bring your own aerial fabric/apparatus or use the studio-provided equipment. Please arrive in full makeup & costume...it's a Halloween event after all. (If you want to be more low key, that's also fine: wear your Upside Aerial apparel).
