A reimagined classic comes alive under the Big Top at Chatou’s île des Impressionnistes—Cirque du Soleil’s Alegría Paris dazzles with aerial prowess, striking new music, and revolution.

    • A legendary contemporary circus classic reimagined for today, Alegría Paris pits aristocrats against rebels in a theatrical spectacle that appeals to families and art lovers alike.

    • Created in 1994 by visionary director Franco Dragone with music by René Dupéré, Alegría toured 250+ cities, enthralling over 14 million spectators worldwide this revival honors that legacy.

    • Built around themes of power, hope, and transformation, expect surreal costumes, gravity-defying acrobatics, playful clowning, with the iconic title song “Alegría” at its heart. Book your Alegría Paris tickets today!

    • Its Grammy‑nominated soundtrack remains Cirque du Soleil’s best‑selling album and won two Félix Awards, sound by Dupéré still resonates across generations.

    • Designed by world-class creative team, Gilles Ste‑Croix, Dominique Lemieux, Debra Brown, this modern staging transforms the classic into a visually and emotionally immersive big‑top revival.

  • In a once‑glorious kingdom that has lost its king, Alegría Paris stages a poetic battle between the aristocratic elite and the hope‑driven youth. As the pretender monarch rules alongside pompous courtiers, a street‑born movement seeks to reclaim joy with music, acrobatics, and rebellion. Set in a world of court clowns, aerial artists, and soulful songs like the iconic title track, the struggle builds toward a climax you’ll only discover inside the tent.

  • These tickets can't be cancelled or rescheduled.
