  • Worth It!

    by Val on 12/31/24Fox Theatre Detroit - DetroitRating: 5 out of 5

    My partner and I were blown away! A lot of fun packed into 90 minutes. The talent takes your breath away and is entertaining for all ages. We will be going next year with family.

  • Fabulous

    Cirque never fails to impress....kids had a great time!

  • Disappointing

    by Connie on 12/31/24Ovens Auditorium - CharlotteRating: 1 out of 5

    If you have ever seen a real Cirque du Soleil , this was like a band of minor league trainees. Only one performance in the beginning was worthy of the name. Even the dancers had a limited repertoire and they were most of the show. Should not even be advertised as Cirque du Soleil. Not at all up to that standard.

  • Disappointed

    by Not a fan on 12/31/24Fox Theatre Detroit - DetroitRating: 2 out of 5

    Way to loud for the size of venue and crowd. Very disappointed in the show, no "wow"moments. Not taking anything away from the performers the have worked very hard for a very long time to perfect their craft and have nothing but respect for them. But to charge that amount for a ticket to be blasted with the music and then the mediocre stunts was disheartening. I've seen better acts on America's Got Talent. Completely disappointed and won't spend the money to see another show performed by this company.

  • Not good enough

    by Mel on 12/31/24Meridian Hall - TorontoRating: 1 out of 5

    Circus should be more than dance and throwing pillows. l was not impressed by this show compared to ECHO. Doesn’t worth it.

  • Cute but not as amazing as other shows

    by DK on 12/31/24Ovens Auditorium - CharlotteRating: 4 out of 5

    Ovens is small venue which was nice but limited the activities on the stage. We have been to other full shows where there was something going on 100% of the time everywhere on stage and above. The performance was good and the acts interesting just seemed to have a lot of slow time between the acts. Had a great family time with kids and grandkids. Just underwhelmed with the total performance compared to full venues we have seen.

  • Love me some Cirque

    by Lizzi on 12/31/24Ovens Auditorium - CharlotteRating: 5 out of 5

    Cirque de Soleil just keeps bringing it! The costuming, the music, the acrobatics, the creativity. Makes me feel like a kid again as I grin through the whole performance.

  • Twas the Night Before Christmas at The Met

    by SEAKAYII on 12/31/24The Met Presented by Highmark - PhiladelphiaRating: 4 out of 5

    The Met is located on North Broad Street where there is minimal public parking and the surrounding neighborhood is gloomy and not pedestrian friendly. I doubt many guests used public transportation. We parked in a covered parking garage under the GIANT store for $10 and walked ten blocks to The Met. It was raining when we arrived at the theater. We had to stand outside the theater in the rain to have our tickets scanned. Once inside the lobby after the inconvenient security check, we had to have our umbrellas checked ($5.00 charge) before we could go to our seats. We enjoyed the performance of Twas the Night Before Christmas by Cirque du Soleil; it was very well done. Leaving the theater was slow because we had to retrieve our checked umbrellas before we could walk to our car. There are no nice restaurants nearby the theater either.

  • Our annual Christmas show with friends.

    by Willy on 12/30/24Fox Theatre Detroit - DetroitRating: 5 out of 5

    We got tickets when they went on sale . Front row seats on the aisle M2 . Perfect for viewing the whole stage and aerial acts with no effort! Everything about this show was amazing and very satisfying. We love The Fox theatre and all it offers. Our best Christmas show and our friends loved it too!

  • Great show

    by GT on 12/30/24Ovens Auditorium - CharlotteRating: 5 out of 5

    Very nice show for the family. Kept my 8yrs old entertained the whole time. Love it

  • Great Show

    by John (jscul95) on 12/30/24The Met Presented by Highmark - PhiladelphiaRating: 5 out of 5

    T'was the Night Before by Cirque de Soleil at the Met Philadelphia was GREAT. The acrobatics, the story line and the audience interaction made for an awesome experience.

  • MORE AERIALS NEEDED

    by AVID FAN on 12/30/24Meridian Hall - TorontoRating: 3 out of 5

    A nice show but disappointed by the lack of aerial performances. As a Cirque du Soleil show I've grown accustom to see that.

  • Wonderful show

    by Dany Soledade on 12/30/24Ovens Auditorium - CharlotteRating: 5 out of 5

    It was a magical experience. Great performance, amazing music and lots of fun. I was picked to go to stage while they were performing and it was just perfect. If you've never been to Cirque du Soleil, don't miss the chance to enjoy this experience.

  • HUGE disappointment

    by Rosemary on 12/30/24Meridian Hall - TorontoRating: 1 out of 5

    Waste of money, and waste of an evening during the holidays. We've seen many Cirque shows over the years, in various cities, and have never before been so disappointed. This was their "B"Team doing a cute but repetitive dance routine. Even the costumes were mediocre. Not the fault of the dancers! I would hold the director/producer/choreographer responsible for this epic fail. Quite simply, there was very little that resembled "Cirque du Soleil"about this show- they sold us a cheaply produced dance show under the Cirque brand, and I may not trust Cirque ever again. What a shame.

  • Festive

    by BB on 12/30/24Ovens Auditorium - CharlotteRating: 5 out of 5

    Great entertainment, amazing acrobatics, and colorful costuming. Also loved the venue at the Ovens Auditorium in Charlotte.

  • Great show but overpriced

    by slightly disappointed on 12/30/24The Met Presented by Highmark - PhiladelphiaRating: 4 out of 5

    It was a great show. My daughter loved it. My wife and I saw them under the big tent quite a few years ago and it was much better. Probably due to having more space versus seeing them at the Met. It was a good show, but IMHO wasn't worth the money for what we spent on tickets.

  • Fantastic entertainment

    by Drew on 12/30/24Fox Theatre Detroit - DetroitRating: 5 out of 5

    If you’ve never been to the Fox, you’re missing out. The venue is just beyond compare. It’s very enjoyable no matter where you sit. The performance was fantastic. This group displays athleticism rarely seen anywhere else. The entertainment was fun, surprising and fully engaging.

  • Amazing!!

    by ZA on 12/30/24Ovens Auditorium - CharlotteRating: 5 out of 5

    At the beginning the show started slow, but took off!! Absolutely loved it and how engaging with the crowd the whole cast was! The skills of the entire cast were so incredible and so captivating! The snowball fight, the spinners in the crowd, the audience onstage moment, the “snow” that fell onto the audience, and the low high high low audience tempo created so much fun! You guys put on an unbelievable performance thank you very much!!!

  • It was the best show

    by Clau on 12/30/24Ovens Auditorium - CharlotteRating: 5 out of 5

    It is awesome, I loved it, I had seen four Cirque du Soleilshows and this one is my favorite
