The Executive Producers and Producers have also taken extra measures to ensure the event provides a positive contribution towards the community and the Malaysian economy. In line with the government's call for Malaysians to help the nation overcome its debts, a part of all proceeds from ticket sales will be donated to the government's Tabung Harapan Malaysia.

The Moscow Circus shall then equally match the amount collected with the hope that a total of at least RM1,000,000 will be raised for the fund during the tour.
"We are grateful to be given this opportunity to bring fellow Malaysian residents an internationally known group of artists to present an electrifying set of performances. Equally importantly, we also wish to play our part by contributing an amount from our sales to the government's Tabung Harapan. Therefore, those who purchase our tickets will not only get to enjoy an unforgettable event, but will also be doing a good deed for the nation at the same time," said Dato' Sri G Radakrishnan, Executive Producer of The Moscow Circus Tour of Malaysia 2018/19.

Tickets to the show can be purchased at an affordable price from as low as RM50 and up to RM280 for top tier tickets. To complete the circus experience, the entire performance will take place under a 2,700-seater fully air-conditioned circus Big Top, which will be the largest circus tent to ever exist in Malaysia.
