  • Glorious and memorable

    by Megh on 1/5/25Meridian Hall - TorontoRating: 5 out of 5

    I used to watch Cirque de Soleil’s performances on TV before moving to Canada. It was such an unparalleled experience to witness this awesome performance of extreme coordination and harmony in-person.

  • Not for kids

    by Lisa on 1/5/25Meridian Hall - TorontoRating: 1 out of 5

    This was marketed as though it was good for kids, but had next to nothing to hold our kid’s attention.

  • An amazing time was had by the entire family

  • Good storyline

    by Trulee on 1/3/25Fox Theatre Detroit - DetroitRating: 4 out of 5

    The show was nice. I liked the theme for the holiday and how the story lined with the theme for the most part. The entertainers were talented. I'm surprised it wasn't more diverse and wonder if any local talents were used. In closing, DEI!

  • Made the spirit Bright!!

    by R De Santis on 1/3/25Fox Theatre Detroit - DetroitRating: 5 out of 5

    Fabulous. A modern option right there next to the Nutcracker. Watching at the Fox Theater in Detroit made it magical for us. Even in the very last row in section C row v, was just as engaging as being on the main floor, really! Music, Sound, story plot and set A-1. Lots of stage snow...Loved it...

  • 'Twas the Night Before...

    by Brian on 1/3/25Fox Theatre Detroit - DetroitRating: 4 out of 5

    The first part seemed corny, a bunch of kids in elf costumes line dancing. But as the show progressed, it got much better. I left after the show was over in good spirits. It was a nice show.

    by Tt on 1/2/25Fox Theatre Detroit - DetroitRating: 3 out of 5

    The story was cute, but overall the show left me wanting more cirque. The acts that they had were INCREDIBLE! I just didn’t expect to see the Apple dance from TikTok over 7 times through the show.

  • Disappointed

    by Gmadee on 1/2/25Fox Theatre Detroit - DetroitRating: 3 out of 5

    Acts not inventive or new. Had seen much of the acts in other shows.

  • Such fun

    by Doug on 1/2/25Ovens Auditorium - CharlotteRating: 4 out of 5

    This was my 5th Cirque du Soleil show and it did not disappoint. Fast action, great music, fun comedy and dance numbers spaced between the feats of strength and fantastic human acts. I did miss the traditional intermission halfway through the show. All in all it was a great experience.
