Cirque Du Soleil | Corteo 2025

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

Friday 22nd August 2025 - Sunday 31st August 2025 @ John Cain Arena

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.

The clown pictures his own funeral taking place in a carnival atmosphere watched over by quietly caring angels.

Juxtaposing the large with the small the ridiculous with the tragic and the magic of perfection with the charm of imperfection the show highlights the strength and fragility of the clown as well as his wisdom and kindness to illustrate the portion of humanity that is within each of us.

The music turns lyrical and playful carrying Corteo through a timeless celebration in which illusion teases reality.

In a Cirque du Soleil first the stage is central in the arena and divides the venue with each half of the audience facing the other half giving a unique perspective not only of the show but also a performer's eye view of the audience.

An atmosphere like never seen before in Cirque du Soleil arena shows.

The set curtains inspired by the Eiffel Tower and the central curtains which were hand painted give a grandiose feel to the stage.

This sets the tone for the poetry of Corteo. Since its creation the show has amazed over 12 million spectators in 30 countries.
