An incredibly beautiful show, with everything you need to have an unforgettable time. The singers, the musicians, the crazy, talented drummer, the performers, all showing extraordinary prowess in a flawless parade. There wasn't a moment of boredom, with every detail down to the last detail. The clowns made us laugh out loud, transitioning between 2 numbers with relish. What can I say about the organization of the reception, everything is done to make you feel at ease, no need to worry about finding your place, the staff who welcome you are smiling and guide you straight to your seat. Breathtaking, everything is pleasure and voluptuousness....I recommend.

Alegría was absolutely breathtaking! From the very first moment, the music, costumes, and acrobatics completely drew us in. The artistry and energy on stage were mesmerizing — every act felt like pure magic. What made it even more special was that my 4-year-old daughter was just as captivated as I was. She sat wide-eyed through the entire show, clapping and laughing with delight. It’s rare to find something that enchants both adults and little ones alike, but Alegría truly does. The combination of stunning visuals, live music, and emotional storytelling makes this one of Cirque du Soleil’s most beautiful productions. A perfect experience for families — unforgettable, heartfelt, and full of joy.

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.

The event, show is organized very very well. The entrance was nice, toilets very clean. Guiding to the seats was very friendly managed. The show was amazing, from the first minute the audience was rewarding the artists with a warm applause. The applause didn't stop, the show ended with a warm standing applause. Very well done.

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!

As far as the show was concerned, there was nothing to complain about. However, the seats purchased were behind a pilone, which greatly reduced the mink's field of vision, as sometimes nothing could be seen from the Seine.... This constraint was not clearly mentioned at the time of booking. Made online. There were plenty of free places with better visibility when we wanted to change places, but the lady strongly objected. I explained that we didn't buy seats to end up behind a pillione. The guide referred us to the concierge at intermission, and we had to pay extra to change seats. As a result, we spent the first half of the show behind a pilone and then had to pay to change seats, which made for a rather negative experience.
