That was never forget show. Was very vivid and life. My family was surprised as it was gift for all of as on my birtdday. The only thing I regret is that all other shows will have to be compared to THIS ONE, and the result is clearly not in their favor. Thank You, it was GREAT!

I'm not going to repeat what so many have already written. What did annoy me then is that how to get your tickets through that app. We spent more than an hour with that. Is it so difficult to send an email with the tickets, with QR code, when you sign in ?

A truly awe-inspiring experience, modern circus at its best. The evening mixed spectacular acrobatics, hilarious clowning, virtuoso musicians and perfectly judged lighting, all linked by a narrative that could be followed easily, even with minimal French language.
    • Cirque du Soleil’s classic Alegría, featuring René Dupéré’s Grammy‑nominated soundtrack, lands in Brussels with 54 artists bringing baroque circus for all ages.

    • Since 1994, Alegría has visited 255 cities and enchanted over 14 million people, with direction by Franco Dragone, sets by Michel Crête, and costumes by Dominique Lemieux.

    • Under the Grand Chapiteau, Alegría explores a kingdom’s collapse with banquine leaps, Cyr‑wheel duets, and clowning wrapped around the title song “Alegría”. Book your Cirque du Soleil Alegria Brussels tickets today.

    • Just a two-month engagement at Brussels Expo’s Big Top beside ING Arena, this strictly limited run has critics calling it “absolutely magical.”

    The story

    Within the weathered walls of a once-magnificent kingdom, a war is brewing. The old guard desperately clutches to their lost power while the spirited Bronx movement rises from the streets. In the shadows, the court jester Mr. Fleur dreams of ascending to the empty throne. But among the court's crumbling grandeur, ethereal Angels carry the promise of change. As their celestial grace mingles with the revolution, a new dawn begins to break over the kingdom.

  • These tickets can't be cancelled or rescheduled.

    Interesting shows: in particular the acrobats on the poles, trapezes, trampolines and the 2 female acrobats. On the other hand, the clown acts were MUCH TOO LONG AND NUMEROUS.
