The atmosphere was fabulous. The tent’s decorations were impressive, with a game where, if you completed it, you’d get a special offer at the store. The booths selling merchandise were very original—clothes, mugs, hats, sunglasses, you name it. We bought two buckets, including the themed metal one, and we loved them—not just the bucket (which is spectacular and is now sitting on top of my TV as a decoration) but also the popcorn, which was even better than what you get at the movies. The event staff was incredibly attentive, making sure everything ran smoothly; they’d politely and respectfully—in a way that was truly admirable—step in if anyone was causing a disturbance, and the show was a ten out of ten. Thank goodness I had the chance to get a seat in the best section—it was impressive—but honestly, the show was designed so that no matter what angle you were at, you could enjoy it and have a unique experience. We’ll definitely be back next year. I went to the Lion King-themed show years ago when I was a “teenager.” Now I’ve been able to take my son and my wife, and seeing the look on their faces as they watched the show… that’s priceless. Congratulations to everyone—10/10. I’m not posting any photos from inside because I don’t want to spoil it for you!!

We liked the show, not the best Cirque Soleil we have ever seen but very entertaining. Least liked was the comedy sketch with the girl from the audiance 2nd half, we thought it was a bit cringworthy and too long to make it funny. 2 yo yo acts why?

The energy and skill of the cast and the design of the sets and costumes and the sheer pace at which it all happened, made this an unforgetable show. It really was spectacular.

Good show. Good sound in the center of the floor.In the outer rings, the sound wasn’t good—it didn’t fill the space at all. The last time I was there, the sound was better. You could see the live orchestra last time, but not this time. Seeing a live orchestra—not just hearing it—is a big plus; watching them play is part of the show.

The story

The story follows the Seeker, a brilliant inventor convinced that a hidden world exists inside his vast curio cabinet. When a cast of eccentric, partly mechanical beings appears, his curios spring to life in a series of surreal and mesmerizing acts. Set in a whimsical, undefined era where past and future intertwine, KURIOS blurs the line between reality and imagination through poetry, humor, and breathtaking acrobatics. Audiences are invited to journey into this alternate universe, a place where creativity reigns and the impossible becomes real.

These tickets can't be cancelled or rescheduled.
