Munich. The Cirque du Soleil's varied program comes into the ring in a truly "curious" way and takes all the audience along with it from the very first moment. The large blue and yellow circus tent on Munich's Theresienwiese arouses curiosity. There are parking spaces right in front of it and the "Theresienwiese" subway station is less than a 2-minute walk away. The Cirque du Soleil troupe was once founded by Guy Laliberté - "once" means 40 years ago that the former street artist realized his dream. 

The circus people from Canada and all over the world have been traveling internationally ever since, inspiring young and old all over the world. In the program currently being shown at the Oktoberfest meadow, a researcher becomes part of a scientific fantasy. The acrobats travel through a cabinet of curiosities and get to know Mr. Microcosmos and all the curious characters involved. Until February 25, 2024 - our tip: be sure to order tickets in advance! (see below!)

The circus numbers under the motto "Kurios" still inspire after 10 years of touring, because human pyramids and rocking balancing acts are hard to beat in terms of perfection at Cirque du Soleil. One is amazed at the flexibility, lightness and art of illusion with which each actor manages to deceive our eyes again and again. Faster, higher, further seems to be the motto. Take James Gonzalez, the Rola Bola artist who balances in the roof of the tent as if he were an arachnid.

This captures the imagination of the crowd. It's captivating how the artist's hands depict these creatures. Another man is a yo-yo, in the broadest sense, and an air bike just goes by, while others hop on a huge net like flying fish under the dome. 13 people form a pyramid group that cannot be surpassed in somersaults and offers top-class acrobatics.

As a tamer, Facundo Gimenez also portrays his animals himself.

Between nostalgia and a vision of the future, the demonstration tells the story of a scientist's plan

From the steam engine to the light bulb, to electro music and robots, visitors to the Cirque du Solei experience a journey through time. The audience follows Mathieu Hubener as the spherical Mr. Mikrokosmos and the postwoman who disappears into the air, where Anne Weisbecker continues cycling under the 20 m high ring and, so to speak, inspires the scientist's imagination.
