    All Cirque du Soleil shows cancelled worldwide

    • Description

      The most popular shows in Las Vegas created by Cirque du Soleil, suspended productions all around the world and in Las Vegas due to the corona virus pandemic. 
      This decision was made because of public health authorities announced to limit all people interactions to stop virus spread. 

      All top end shows such as “O” in Bellagio,“The Beatles Love” in Mirage, “KA” at MGM Grand, “Mystere” at Treasure Island, “Zumanity“ at "New York-New York" and “Michael Jackson One“ at Mandalay Bay.

      Touring and arena shows of Cirque du Soleil was also canceled around the globe at Costa Mesa, Denver, Salt Lake City, Austin, Chicago, Houston, New Orleans, Boston, Montreal, Tel Aviv, Meloneras in Spain, Munich in Germany and Australian cities - Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth. 

      Worldwide shows cancellation was followed another loss for the company in Las Vegas - its first live-action adventure show without acrobatics called “R.U.N” simply because of low ticket sales . Show was performed at Luxor Hotel and Casino. President and Chief Executive Daniel Lamarre said that “We thought we had a good risk here. We all believed it was the right thing to do, to bring something special and different to the Strip. Unfortunately we did not attract as many people to the show as we were hoping.”

      With all above mentioned , with virus outbreak on top, will coronavirus kill Cirque du Soleil, will entertainment behemoth announce bankruptsy?

      Due to the weakening of entertainment market, investors might express serious doubts and might beian to lose confidence in Cirque du Soleil. At the same time, there is no guarantee when shows will be back on track. Currently only in Las Vegas 1500 Cirque du Soleil employees lost their jobs, sources at cirque du soleil said that there will b no compensation to emplyees by Cirque du Soleil during this dark period. 

      We really hope that Cirque du soleil will strive and survive as this is one of the best companiest in the Circus industry.
