Wright’s Amusements has been providing carnival entertainment for more than 43 years. Family and fun — these two words define Wright’s Amusements like no other carnival company in America! In 1962, Floyd Wright and his two brothers, Frank and Charles, launched a traveling carnival that put family fun first. A half century later, Floyd Wright’s nephew, John Ring, runs the show in the same treasured tradition. “My life — my heritage—is all about making sure people have a great time,” says Ring. “What better ‘job’ is there?” Wright’s Amusements is based in Elbert, CO, but the carnival travels year-round to state and county fairs, shopping malls, festivals, and special events, entertaining thousands in Colorado, New Mexico, and Texas. From the children’s carousel to the newest thrill ride, from the midway to the concessions, it’s family fun. Winner of the prestigious Outdoor Amusement Business Association (OABA) Circle of Excellence Award, Wright’s Amusements is grateful for the recognition of our industry. But they’re most proud of the smiles they see on family faces every day, in every city, at every carnival they create.
