The first theatricalised circus performances were held in temporary buildings (circus tents). The first memories of circus performances in the city of Aleksandrovsk (as Zaporizhia used to be known) refer to the 1920s.

During the Second World War, the summer circus was destroyed.

In 1948, the circus was restored using the "people's construction work" method. The main workforce was students of the 19th and 23th vocational high schools, who did more than 10,000 hours of earthwork and other work. Workers of the following city's enterprises took an active part in the restoration works: Zaporozhstroy, Zaporozhalyuminbud, Kommunar, Dneprostroy, Vodokanal and others.

Based on a decree by the Committee for Culture at the USSR Council of Ministers (the USSR government) (decree no. 303, as of 26 May 1948), a summer circus was founded in Zaporizhia; the circus was situated in the city's Park of Metallurgists and was open in summer only. Being of a summer type, the building of the circus was made of wood; its auditorium seated 1,785 people.

December 1966 marked the start of construction works on a new building that would seat 2,000.

On 20 April 1972, the Zaporizhia State Circus (the Zaporizhia Circus or the Circus, for short), a resident circus, was opened in the new building at 41 Rekordnaya Street.

In 2004, major repairs were done in the Circus.

Today, the Zaporizhia Circus is one of the central organisers of entertainment events for children and adults alike, in city of Zaporizhia and in the entire Zaporizhia Region. The Zaporizhia Circus always strives to increase the artistic quality of its circus performances and to improve spectator service culture. Thanks to this, the Zaporizhia Circus is attended by increasingly many people, over 125,000 people a year.

The Zaporizhia Circus is very much involved in charity activities. Its charity performances have been attended by over 60,000 orphan children, disabled children, children from low-income families, children from those families that suffered from the accident at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Station as well as by other types of people who require social protection.

The arena of the Zaporizhia Circus has seen such outstanding people of circus art as Yury Nikulin, Igor and Emil Kio, the Durovs, the Filatovs, the Zapashnys and a great many others.
