From the dancing, the dramatics, to the colors, everything about the Cirque du Soleil was dope ask eff and I was glad to be in attendance. The show was very eye catching from start to finish. The acrobatic dancers did their thing on the swings, poles and balancing beams. I love creativity and I also love when dancing is expressed in a way that tells a story. Amaluna delivered by telling a story that takes place on an island of nothing but women however a storm takes place and a group of men ended up being washed up on the island. Overall I had a great time and I was glad to have the opportunity through yelp to see and explore different events that probably wouldn't spark my interest otherwise. It was an enjoyable, amazing and wonderful experience. I will definitely check it out again next year. read more

For the second year in a row, I headed over to Cirque du Soleil. This year it was the Amaluna - which from the narrator was a coming of age story. Unlike my previous experience, this show was much more of a story versus one off performances. However, there was still plenty of aerobatics and breath taking performances. I kept saying "I couldn't do that" to even their simplest tricks. Overall, tying everything back to the theme and story made it more enjoyable. I believe the show ran just over 2 hours, including a 20-25 minute intermission. Finding the tent and parking was a breeze. Even getting out afterwards was not difficult. An enjoyable night from end to end. read more

I've never met a Cirque Du Soleil show I didn't like (I've seen one in Orlando and last year's Volta)and Amaluna was no exception! If anything, it was even more amazing due to it being a show with over 70% of the cast being female! Even the musicians are all female as well. How awesome is that? The story itself is somewhat of a Romeo and Juliet tale/coming of age tale (somewhat inspired by Shakespeare's The Tempest) as a group of men are washed up on an island run by Goddesses and the queens daughter falls for the son of their leader. Lots of amazing acts that I've come to expect from Cirque Du Soleil: unicycles, silks, hoops, uneven bars, jugglers and more. Great musical accompaniment and the humorous scenes in between acts to break up the various acts/performances.The costumes were also great as well. Definitely go see this show while its in town! You won't regret it! read more

As always, Cirque du Soleil delivered a beautiful, thrilling, fun show! I had the opportunity to attend, courtesy of Yelp Philly, on Thurs 8/1. The layout of the pop-up tent venue itself was similar to that of last year's "VOLTA." Stage was totally different, of course -- it was very cool. Music was awesome, visuals were stunning, and the acrobats, performers, and musical artists were incredibly talented. As is customary with their shows, they had a pre-show comedy routine by one of the characters. The acts had a good mix of stunts, skill, and story through dance/movement. They brought back the "fancy" porta-potties and portable sinks, of which there were an abundance outside the arena. Concessions are unsurprisingly very expensive. Lots of goodies to choose from. There's also a bar. I passed on food/drink. Inside the arena is freezing! I remembered this from last time and dressed accordingly. I noticed they offer booster seats for the little ones in the audience -- a very nice accommodation! I am extremely grateful I got to see this show, as I loved the whole experience. Thank you, Yelp Philly! read more

I have seen over twenty different Cirque du Soleil performances throughout the USA and Canada. Since that first one in Las Vegas, which had no name at the time, was in a small tent behind the Treasure Island hotel, and eventually grew into Mystère, Amaluna is right up there with the best of them. I believe more choreography has been added than in the past to some of the acrobatic routines. Maybe this gives the performers some needed rest between feats, maybe it's just to add more color to an act. In any event, just like at every Cirque performance, you have to keep your eyes moving all around the tent so you don't miss anything. Exciting things keep happening everywhere. And the clowns are wonderful! Here's a fun little fact for you. The flags above the entrance to the tent represent the countries from which the performers come from. When you look at the flags of these countries, the flag most centered among them is that of Cirque du Soleil. The flags on either side of Cirque's flag represent those countries with the most performers in that particular show. As the number of performers from a country lessens, the flags are mounted further away from Cirque's flag. For this show, Brazil and Great Britain followed Canada and the USA with the most performers. read more

Wonderful breathtakingly beautiful show right in our own backyard! I really was so taken by the beauty and function of the stage! ( if you go, you'll see what I mean) The window is closing so make sure to see it before they travel away, August 25th! Amaluna is a treat for the eyes and the senses. The lady in the ring, aerial artists and unicyclists were my favorite. I had to pick my mouth up off the floor. I was nervous for the performers with many of the intense performances. So much physical beauty, talent and grace in one place. The opening of the show took my breath away with the beauty and grandeur of the elaborate costumes. Peacock colors were the order of the day at this show = instant love. Go see the gift store too! Pretty masks and nice jewelry too. I was lucky enough to see Volta and I loved Amaluna. If you don't see this show you're missing out on an amazing evening of excitement. There is so much beauty off the set and the often times forgotten, behind the scenes musical talent deserves recognition. The female drummer was also an exquisite talent and a beauty too. The music and the vocals were memorable. Thank you Yelp for this not to be missed opportunity! RUN, don't walk to this Las Vegas quality show! This will be an annual event for me providing Cirque graces us next year with their talent. read more

WOW, just wow! No words can describe the acts in this show. I've been to plenty and this one is up there in favorites. Space was great and I loved that I could see basically the entire stage and seating are from where I was at (section 203). I enjoyed every single act. Each one was different in every way. There were aerial artists, gymnasts, jugglers, and more. One thing that some might not know is that all Cirque shows are live music. The band and singer in this show is just wow - Whaaatt!!!! Way to rock out. So talented. read more

Cirque de soeil amaluna was a fabulous show. This event takes place in a ridiculously huge circus tent. A good portion of this performance takes place from the ceiling. The guys' act was so fast and skillful. Fun to watch. When the lady delicately balanced all those bones, I held my breath; afraid to clap until the very end! At first I thought there was a sound track playing since we sat way over to the side (near where the performers enter the stage.) I was quite impressed to discover that this was actually an all-female live band! The did a fabulous job! read more

We watched this over the summer with my in-laws, and all of us enjoyed the show! All the performers are incredibly talented, and they insert some fun entertainment bits too, which is a nice touch. All the acrobatics were very impressive, as expected of a Cirque du Soleil show, and they added some other acts I hadn't seen before but were also great! One in particular had the entire audience with bated breath watching, with an amazing performer stacking stalks of straw on each other. Words can't do it justice; it might not sound impressive in a Yelp review, but everyone was captivated when it was happening. They've chosen a good place to hold this performance, as there's plenty of room to park. It can be a bit crowded when trying to leave, but not too bad. read more

Phenomenal show this past summer in Oaks, PA! I was fortunate enough to get tickets for both my husband and I, but also a set for my parents. I have seen a previous Cirque du Soleil show in Las Vegas, but it has been almost 10 years and neither my husband or parents have experienced a show like this. Parking was extremely easy and so was picking up our tickets from will-call. The inside area before the show is very accommodating and has plenty of space to hang out before the big show starts. Both food and drink options are available including alcoholic beverages, but of course prices are on the high side. They also had an area if you wanted to upgrade your tickets for better seats with a slight discount. The inside arena was amazing. We had seats a little higher up but there really is not a bad seat in the house. You can see almost everything from every angle, especially because this type of show does a great job making sure there are no blind spots for the audience. The sound system and music were awesome and the performers of course were all excellent. At the end of the show when we met up with my parents, my mom told me it was like she was sitting next to a 4 year old. My dad got so into it and was cheering/hooting/hollering with excitement during the show. He is 75 BTW. read more

I had a great time at Cirque Du Soliel! (Thanks Yelp for the invite!) There was an undergoing storyline throughout, inspired by Shakespeare's The Tempest. However, I had no idea of the storyline before attending and I still really enjoyed it! The acrobats were AMAZING! The event/location setup was also done very well. The bathrooms had toilets that actually flushed, which I really appreciated. The drinks were very expensive ($16 for 9oz of wine), but I guess that's typical when buying alcohol at any of these types of events. I would definitely recommend seeing this while it's in town! read more

Another amazing Cirque du Soleil show! Last year I was lucky enough to get in to Volta and this year I was so excited to get tickets to Amaluna, thanks to being a Yelp Elite member! The bathrooms are considered port a potty's, but they actually flush and were shockingly clean. There were plenty of stalls so you didn't have to wait long. I did not purchase any merchandise or concessions. The tent is nicely air conditioned inside. I loved the way the set was designed. I felt like I was in a magical rain forest. The performers were all extraordinary. I especially enjoyed the moon goddess (the performer with the ring on the rope) and the acrobats towards the end of the show. Everything was on point! I hope they bring another Cirque show back to Oaks. Thanks Michelle C. for the tickets! read more

Wow!!! I have been to several Cirque performances and this was one of the best! The artists were incredible as was the variety of the acts. There was the expected aerial acts, which were amazing - by way of hoop, ribbon (rope?) and pole. There was a balancing artist who created a memetic sculpture on stage, one piece at a time until she could step away from the perfectly balanced construction. The finale of this was one of my personal highlights of the evening, I won't spoil it for you. There were unicycles and teeter-totter spring boards. Lots of gymnastic prowess on display. The live band was entirely female and rocked it. This is a great venue for Cirque. There is lots of free parking. Snack foods are offered, including Hagen-das ice cream and the entertainment is family friendly. The big tent is fully air conditioned, so even on a hot summer day, it was very comfortable. They also have wheelchair accessible restrooms. Highly recommend. read more

This was only my second Cirque du Soleil show, but I would definitely keep going to see more. Visually, everything was stunning - the costumes were gorgeous, the stage was set up beautifully, and it all looked like something out of a fairytale. The songs and music also really added to the performance, there was a wide range of genre from more rock and roll songs to synth to soft R&B melodies. The vocalists were incredible, and so were the live musicians. And all the acrobats were so, so talented! The stunts they pulled off felt impossible, there were moments where I couldn't believe I was seeing what I was seeing. My partner and I had a good time, the story was a bit contrived but honestly I wouldn't have expected plot at a Cirque show anyways? You'll be wowed just by the aesthetics and the show's performance itself, it was really impressive and breathtaking. If you and your friends / family need something low key to do on a weekday/weekend, please check out the show while it's running! It's a show that's great for all ages and is sure to please anyone. We also loved that it was under a big top, like an old time circus. We weren't sure if we'd be allowed to take in food but we could - we straight up had Wawa hoagies with us so if you want to bring in your own snacks, feel free to. read more

I'm a huge fan of the Cirque du Soleil acts and this one was one of the best. Stage size and seating was perfect. I felt it wasn't too large in size that even if you were in the back, you could see the amazing performances without having to squint. My favorite act had to be the women on the bars. I was shocked at all the stuff they could do and not be hurt bouncing on those bars the way they did. My daughter loved all the flips and tricks and I never saw her clap so hard and fast in my life. As for my son, he was basically on the edge of his seat most of the time. Great for all ages!!!! read more

We were lucky enough to be invited by Yelp (Thank you Yelp!) to Amaluna and wow, what a fantastic show. Parking is free and plenty, and we were amazed at the tent as we were walking in. It is quite a set up. There are plenty of restrooms outside, and a bar and concessions right inside. The show has live music with an all women band, and the all of the performances were truly amazing. I kept saying...WHAT!! How are they doing that?? I loved all the performers, but the girl balancing the sticks was mind blowing! There was not a bad seat in the house, and it's a theatre in the round. What an awesome show, don't miss it!! read more

Cirque du Soleil does it again! This is only my second cirque live performance, but thanks to yelp, my husband and I were able to snag 3rd row seats. We were so close you start to feel like you are in the show rather than attending. The performers were on point, feeding off each other's energy and drawing in the audience for participation. There was always somewhere to look, mouths hung open in awe of the limber acrobats, the unwavering balance of the unicyclists and of course, the budding romance between the shows host and the newly washed up sidekick to the hunk. Perfect for families, date night and for anyone who enjoys the energy of the theatre. Although under a big top, the outdoor toilettes were clean, well stocked with paper products and even had mirrors! The staff was engaging asking about how we liked the show, directing people to their seat and even cleaning and helping the performers hook in to place and ensure their safety. We didn't eat or drink since we had dinner prior, but there was popcorn, hot dogs, soda and a full bar if you so chose to imbibe. Overall a bit. My husband loved the show and we are committed to seeing a new cirque this year for our anniversary! read more

So far... it's intermission, its a good show-interesting acts except for the Greek lady character (annoying and like 1/2 the show, I'm assuming to take your attention off the change of scenes). Restrooms are port o potty's FYI, and no sink (foul), pouring rain and no restroom inside. Show delayed 30 min too. read more
