2019 Barnum Festival ringmaster talks about theme, plans

BRIDGEPORT — More than 200 people gathered at Testo’s Restaurant on Tuesday to hear the 2019 Barnum Festival ringmaster’s plans for the upcoming festivities. Tuesday was the annual Meet the Ringmaster event, which the festival has been putting together for over a decade. The event is considered the kickoff event of the Barnum Festival, which pays tribute to the life of P.T. Barnum. “I’m so delighted to be a part of that,” Schwartz said. “It’s a tradition, a celebration, in many ways, of Bridgeport,” said Mayor Joe Ganim of the festival. Former Kennedy Center CEO and President Marty Schwartz was named the 71st ringmaster of the Barnum Festival.
