  • Special holiday show

    by MK on 12/23/24Fox Theatre Detroit - DetroitRating: 5 out of 5

    If you want to go to a fun holiday show that’s different from a typical one like the Nutcracker, this is a great choice. The artistry and athleticism is incredible. The sets and choreography are spectacular. Highly recommended!

  • Great show for all!

    by BK on 12/23/24The Met Presented by Highmark - PhiladelphiaRating: 5 out of 5

    What a great show to get you into the holiday spirit. Lots of great music and some incredible acrobatics, which you always just expect at a Cirque du Soleil show. Highly recommend going to see any show you can!!

  • Not bad but not amazing

    by Mel on 12/23/24Fox Theatre Detroit - DetroitRating: 3 out of 5

    Exactly an hour and a half. Some good music. Many of the same acrobatics I’ve seen in other shows, just dressed up for Christmas. A nice story though.

  • Underwhelming

    by Cait on 12/23/24Meridian Hall - TorontoRating: 2 out of 5

    Would not recommend. For a Cirque de Soleil production i was expecting more acrobatics, more gymnastics but it was 95% dancing & choreo. I'd say it's more for kids but def not an adult outing.

  • Not what we expected

    by My wife and me on 12/23/24Fox Theatre Detroit - DetroitRating: 1 out of 5

    Had been to 6 other Cirque du Soleil from Vegas to Orlando and my eyes got tired of trying to follow all the fun acrobatic acts. This one looked as if it was a school play. Nothing that gave a wow factor at all. Sorry and the story line? Not.

  • Magical holiday experience

    by DAV on 12/23/24Fox Theatre Detroit - DetroitRating: 5 out of 5

    We’ve seen a handful of Cirque shows in locations around the U.S., and each one is absolutely enchanting. This show was a magical holiday experience, and we definitely recommend the show!

  • Must see

    by Best night on 12/23/24Ovens Auditorium - CharlotteRating: 5 out of 5

    I just loved this show. It was so much fun. The whole program was so good and a great way to get into the Christmas season.

  • Cirque does not disappoint

    by DJB1492 on 12/23/24The Met Presented by Highmark - PhiladelphiaRating: 5 out of 5

    As the title suggests, we have enjoyed almost every show from Cirque du Soleil. The acts were great and the story line was cute. This was our first visit to The Met Philly. Beautiful theater. I use a mobility scooter for long distances (we parked about 8 blocks away). The staff was very accommodating for me. Emily went out of her way to find a good place for me to park the scooter while I walked to our 2nd row seats. All the staff wanted us to have the best experience possible. Thank you to each of them that we interacted with. Your professionalism and care about your guests is truly appreciated.

  • Ring in the holidays!!

    by Meecy on 12/23/24Ovens Auditorium - CharlotteRating: 5 out of 5

    Even though it was smaller than the typical Cirque shows, I loved it! It was the perfect intro to my holidays! I do think the father's role could have had a bit more pizazz

  • Cirque

    by Andy on 12/23/24Ovens Auditorium - CharlotteRating: 5 out of 5

    Always an amazing time! Certainly worth going to see. We sit up close so we can see the whole thing and the effort the performers put into their craft! Great job once again!

  • Show was amazing, building too hot

    by Dave on 12/23/24Ovens Auditorium - CharlotteRating: 4 out of 5

    The cirque du solaie show was amazing, the performers did a fantastic job. My only issue was with the building. It was way too hot inside to the point where people were leaving. Also felt the venue was a little small for this show.

  • It was okay

    by Vivica on 12/23/24DPAC - Durham Performing Arts Center - DurhamRating: 2 out of 5

    I was a bit disappointed my son and I expected more aerial to occur. Not a show I would return to - especially for the price of the tickets. I paid way too much for this calabore of show.

  • Obstructed view

    by Mark on 12/22/24The Met Presented by Highmark - PhiladelphiaRating: 2 out of 5

    I bought 6 seats in the Orch 5 section. The views were all obstructed by the upper balcony. Over 600 dollars wasted. I learned my lesson but think you folks really should let the buyer know the view for a Cirque show with high acts is not any good from these seats. Also monitors are not very good at all either. As for Cirque...they were awesome as usual but if I were them I would turn down a theater that doesn't care about the view.

  • Family Fun!

    by TT on 12/22/24The Met Presented by Highmark - PhiladelphiaRating: 4 out of 5

    The show was adorable! There were some cool surprise tricks and fun music. The stage was beautiful!

  • Show was good,but overpriced

    by Xx on 12/22/24The Met Presented by Highmark - PhiladelphiaRating: 3 out of 5

    The show was good, but the ticket price was way too high, I should have waited until they were on a sale. Reformers were limited by the venue. They was only so much they could do without more equipment.

  • Brilliant Christmas Show

    by Tom on 12/22/24Meridian Hall - TorontoRating: 4 out of 5

    As ever, Cirque du soleil shows are always impressive and a spectacle. The set and performers were super talented and this was a really lovely Christmas themed show…some of the music was slightly annoying but that would be my only criticism! Definitely worth the ticket price!

  • Great staff, good show, ok seats

    by dms4nj on 12/22/24The Met Presented by Highmark - PhiladelphiaRating: 4 out of 5

    The show was good. Quite a bit of talent in that small stage! We sat in Balcony box seats level 4. Wish it was mentioned that they are tall bar type seats and that the view would be partially obstructed. The stage was made up of 2 levels and sometimes the actors/acrobats were on the upper stage and we could not see because of the angle and height we were sitting. The staff, well, I can’t say enough about them. They were very accommodating especially to a member of our group that used a cane.

  • Fantastic!!

    by Moncheri on 12/22/24Rating: 5 out of 5

    The acoustic, lighting, costumes, performers, choreography, acrobatics, tumblers, juggler, and the list goes on was fantastic!! Highly recommend for the entire family. The venue was perfect!

  • Do not waster your money!
