Cirque du Soleil began with a very simple dream. A group of young entertainers got together to amuse audiences, see the world, and have fun doing it.
This is an event nobody visiting in the summer should miss. It is the place where the Cirque du Soleil always presents its new shows to the home town public of Montréal.
As it is not language bound and has no violence and no animals in it this is truly for everyone. The beauty of the costumes, the intriguing acts,...

Either you are a Traveling Cirque Fan, or you're not. Vegas is a whole different category.
But seeing a premiere in Montreal was really a trip. It's on the Old Port so it's a perfect place to enjoy 5-à-7 and then catch the late show, or, like we did, enjoy the Sunday show midday post-brunch.
As Cirque shows go, Amaluna was very beautiful but not nearly as awe-inspiring as some of the Vegas...

Seeing Cirque Du Soleil in Montreal is like no other experience. This was actually my absolute favorite thing that we did on our trip here and I will for sure hit up the cirque every time I am in Montreal. I saw a Cirque show in Vegas about 4 years ago and have to say that the Vegas show paled in comparison to this show. The Montreal show is in the actual circus tents with the correct stage and... plus
I love the cirque! Once you've seen them you really wont see the point of traditional circuses with animals. Absolutely thrilling. I've seen them three times twice here in Montreal and once in Vegas with Chris Angel Believe. Although I was really thinking I was going to see more Mind Freak and less cirque it was still entertaining but a little disappointing. If you want to see Chris Angel don't... plus
I have been to two Cirque shows so far, and am contemplating my third. If only the tickets weren't so expensive! (Not that the performers don't deserve every penny from the ticket price, perhaps I should rephrase that.) If only I wasn't such a broke-a@s!
I saw Corteo in Vancouver, which was awesome, unfortunately we bought tickets a little too late so our seats were pretty close to the back,...

Prices are steep but the entertainment is steeper. Cirque Du Soleli OVO is amazing. This was my first snd hopefully will not be my last. My partner and I chose to sit in the very front on the side. I believe it was $94 and you may have to turn your hand, but it was well worth it. One can still see all the action clealy. What one should do is go on their site to buy the tickets and you can see... plus
This is my first Cirque du Soleil show under the grand Chapiteau. I was kinda reluctant to go to see OVO after watching the preview but it was actually pretty amazing! I had the second row from the stage and we could clearly see everything. Another awesome experience from Cirque du Soleil, just what I expected.
This review is specifically about the new show OVO.
Almost too late, I remembered that Montreal is home to the world-renowned Cirque du Soleil. Fortunately for me, when I checked the website a few days prior to my trip to Montreal, I saw that the new production OVO was playing during my trip and a few tickets were still available.
When I was shown to my seat, I was amazed at how close I was...

I'm not going to review any particular show (since I've seen about half of their shows). I'm just going to review them as whole company. Cirque du Soleil is a performing troupe that started in Montreal 25 years ago. Their shows are a very unique cross between the circus (minus the live animals) and musical theatre. The shows usually feature some sort of storyline set to music and involve the... plus
