An imposing tent complex within which Magic takes place, in a world of fantasy, music, dance and acrobatics. You will be dragged into a world that "doesn't" exist and you won't have enough eyes and ears to take in everything that happens in and around the tent. Light and sound effects and decor are matched to each other, but the technique and decor builders are also part of the show. A 2-hour show that's over before you know it, slowly bringing you back to the present. Every Cirque du Soleil show is another amazement of what is possible in that which is considered impossible. Looking forward to the new show. Kurios is highly recommended for young and old alike!!!

From the first drumbeat to the final bow, this show is a rush of precision, poetry, and play. The acrobats bend physics with aerial straps, teeterboards, and hand-to-hand sequences that make the whole tent hold its breath. Live music drives every scene, lighting paints the air, and the clowning adds heart without slowing the momentum. Transitions are seamless; there isn’t a wasted second or a bad seat in the house. It’s the rare production that makes you laugh, gasp, and go quiet—all in the span of a minute. I left with goosebumps and that rare “how did they do that?” grin. Worth every euro and then some. If you want a night that feels larger than life, this is it.

It was an experience with mixed feelings, can't say dissapointed but can't say amazed either. There were very nice parts like 4 ladies dancing on the mechanic hand or the net jumping group, costumes and music were very good however some parts weren't much attractive for me like the yoyo show or acts used as passages. There were significantly many empty seats in the audiance and despite that unfortunately I was not allowed to move to a better seat. Overall, It was a nice evening time. Would I recommend to someone else maybe if haven't seen before , would I come for another show probably not.

In The Hague, Cirque du Soleil’s KURIOS Cabinet of Curiosities transforms the circus into a steampunk dreamscape, where contortionists, acrobats, and curious inventions defy logic at every turn.

Directed by Michel Laprise, with original score by Raphaël Beau, this production has been hailed by the San Francisco Chronicle as "the most enthralling, consistently over-the-top magical show the company has sent our way in years."

Equal parts playful and poetic, the show combines eccentric choreography, theatrical humor, and breathtaking stunts, offering something to delight everyone.

At the heart of the spectacle is the Seeker’s cabinet, a world of eccentric characters, mechanical marvels, and surreal encounters, unfolding with Cirque’s signature artistry.

Catch this limited run under the Big Top at Malieveld, and book Cirque du Soleil’s KURIOS Cabinet of Curiosities tickets in The Hague before this unforgettable experience disappears.

The story

Inside his massive mechanical cabinet, the Seeker believes a hidden universe of ideas and dreams exists. Outlandish, otherworldly characters tumble in, upending his reality with humor, poetry, and acrobatics. Each curio springs to life, blurring imagination and reality. Set in an undefined past, the story invites viewers to explore hidden realms. Will the Seeker embrace the wonders of the unknown or just stick to the known?

These tickets can't be cancelled or rescheduled.

An absolutely spectacular experience. From the very first moment, the magical atmosphere and stunning stage design completely draw you in. Every act is carefully crafted, combining breathtaking acrobatics, immersive music, and a unique visual style. The talent and passion of the performers truly shine in every performance. I left feeling amazed and grateful to have experienced something so special and unforgettable. Highly recommended, whether it’s your first Cirque du Soleil show or not.

The tent is beautiful, beautiful costumes and set pieces. beautiful live? music. The performers are all great, you stay breathless watching the whole show. Before the show starts you are also kept nice and busy by searching for 10 devices for a chance to win a discount or a gift from the shop. Lots of toilets, everything has been thought of. You do not sit on wooden planks but on comfortable chairs. It is really worth the money!

The show flowed incredibly! Acrobats are a particular favorite of mine, especially the trampoline act and then, the final group! People were launched into the air to incredible heights, sometimes with several in the air at the same time, passing each other in an obviously well rehearsed routine. I was simply in awe by it all! I will definitely go again!

which was not ideal: we sat in the 2nd row, which was not elevated. Therefore, despite the expensive seats in the front, we always had to look past the heads in row 1 to the left or right. This is not a good solution in view of the expensive tickets. Otherwise great artistry, poetry and imagination, as always
