Cirque Du Soleil has been a regular feature on the family event calendar for many Australians with amazing performances over the years including Toruk, based on the Avatar movie, and most recently Kurios.

And the great news is we can now continue to experience amazing performances from the team live streamed into our homes.  Moved by a desire to stay connected to its fans the team have created a new digital content hub called CirqueConnect, available at cirquedusoleil.com/cirqueconnect.

The Cirque du Soleil content hub provides a source of high-quality entertainment for fans to enjoy from the comfort of their homes, as current measures to combat the coronavirus (COVID-19) have suspended live viewing experiences across the globe.

“We at Cirque du Soleil have a role to play in providing high-quality entertainment to our fans that are staying in their homes as this crisis unfolds,” said Sheila Morin, CMO of Cirque du Soleil Entertainment Group. “Now more than ever, our fans need the distraction that spectacle brings, a break from the chaos. We want to do our part to spread joy, even from afar, directly to them.”

The CirqueConnect content hub is filled with footage from our various multimedia offerings, including:

  • 60-minute specials: Cirque du Soleil opened its vault of live show recordings and invited fans to witness some of the most iconic show moments of KURIOS – Cabinet of Curiosities, ‘’O’’, and LUZIA.
  • Virtual Reality Experiences: Download the Cirque du Soleil VR app to get onstage and step into the heart of Cirque du Soleil most thrilling moments.
  • Content Series and Tutorials: With titles such as Cirque it Out and Color Me Cirque, audiences can exercise like a Cirque du Soleil artist and learn make-up techniques from the professionals.
  • Music: Sit back and enjoy, sing along or get up and dance to a variety of music videos and soundtracks from our Cirque du Soleilshows.
  • Family-Friendly Favorites: Cirque du Soleil family programming includes Netflix’s Luna Petunia, an animated series of adventure, friendship and learning in the fantastical land of Amazia, and Big Top Academy, an original live-action kids series centered around an extraordinary group of young acrobats who dream of becoming circus artists.
