The circus in Karaganda, more precisely, the construction of the building for it began in 1976. It turned out to be a long building as the budget funds were spent on more significant objects. But by forces of local enterprises and enthusiasts, the construction was completed and in 1983 the first performance took place there.

The architect of the project was A. Boykov. Initially, it was assumed that the circus would be made on a standard model, as well as many other buildings throughout the Soviet Union. But the geographical features and detailed layout of the surrounding area (the circus building was supposed to form a single ensemble with the Oktyabrsky Sports Palace and a hotel with access to Central Park) played on the fact that the standard project was remade. The building itself turned out to be higher and with the following characteristics:

• the capacity of 2000 seats;
• the height of the dome is 18 meters;
• the diameter of the arena is 13 meters;

Another distinguishing feature was gaslight advertising, located on the dome. In the 2000s, the circus has undergone major repairs. The facade and interior decoration were renovated, outdated equipment was replaced.
