In a glorious celebration of 40 years of dreaming the impossible, Cirque du Soleil returns to the Royal Albert Hall in January 2025, with one of their most jubilant and joyous shows, CORTEO.
Unique staging creates an immersive and intimate experience, CORTEO will present Cirque du Soleil in a never-seen-before configuration. Featuring countless feats of jaw-dropping acrobatics including death-defying aerial acts, swinging from Chandeliers, and floating over the captivated audience, CORTEO is a timeless celebration in which mesmerising stunts will blur the lines of where illusion ends and reality begins.
In a place somewhere between heaven and earth, Mauro, a clown is dreaming. As angels watch over him, Mauro dreams of a glorious carnival where a colourful parade of revelers celebrates his life. Juxtaposing the ridiculous with the tragic, the large with the small, and the magic of perfection with the charms of imperfection, the audience is plunged into a thrilling world that celebrates Cirque du Soleil at its very best. CORTEO highlights the fragility and strength of the clown, as well as his kindness and wisdom, and illustrates the humanity within us all.
Corteo is an awe-inspiring spectacle suitable for all ages; A show where everything starts with a simple dream and seeing is believing.
