Event Series: Corteo

Cirque du Soleil: Corteo

23 September @ 4:00 pm - 6:00 pm AEST

Cirque du Soleil returns to Australia with its most unique production CORTEO, set to charm audiences for the very first time.

Heading to Perth, Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, and Adelaide from August 8 to October 5, 2025, this exceptional show, directed by Daniele Finzi Pasca (who also directed LUZIA), first premiered in Montreal under the Big Top in April 2005. Corteo, which means cortege in Italian, is a joyous procession, a festive parade imagined by a clown. The show brings together the passion of the artist with the grace and power of the acrobat to plunge the audience into a theatrical world of fun, comedy and spontaneity situated in a mysterious space between heaven and earth.
