Your chance to win 2x tickets for the premiere of Cirque du Soleil's CORTEO at the Royal Albert Hall

To celebrate 40 years of dreaming the impossible, Cirque du Soleil returns to the Royal Albert Hall in January 2025, with one of their most joyous and jubilant shows, CORTEO.

 “a spellbinding show of theatrics and electrifying feats of derring-do” – The Sun

“With this revival Cirque has come full circle and is all the better for it.” – **** Evening Standard

With unique staging, creating an intimate and immersive experience, Cirque du Soleil will present CORTEO at the Royal Albert Hall in a never seen before configuration. With countless feats of jaw-dropping acrobatics including aerial acts swinging from Chandeliers and floating over the audience, CORTEO is a timeless celebration in which mesmerising stunts will make you question where illusion ends and reality begins.

Somewhere between heaven and earth, Mauro, a clown is dreaming. Watched on by angels, Mauro dreams of a carnival where a parade of revelers are celebrating his life. Juxtaposing the large with the small, the ridiculous with the tragic and the magic of perfection with the charm of imperfection, the audience are plunged into a theatrically thrilling world celebrating Cirque du Soleil at its best. Beautifully poetic, CORTEO highlights the strength and fragility of the clown, as well as his wisdom and kindness, so as to illustrate the humanity within each of us.

CORTEO is a spectacle suitable for all ages; rejoice in this majestic, awe-inspiring show that’s been seen by over 10 million people and will perform at London’s iconic Royal Albert Hall. CORTEO by Cirque du Soleil – where everything starts with a dream and seeing is believing.
