Cirque Dreams Holidaze
Cirque Dreams Holidaze dazzles with a brilliant, breathtaking holiday spectacular for the entire family. As the original cirque holiday theatrical event, this annual tradition wraps a Broadway-style production around awe-inspiring contemporary circus arts. Guests of all ages will be on the edge of their seats as a cast of holiday characters comes to life, captivating audiences while defying gravity. Broadway World exclaims, “Lose yourself for 90 minutes and go back to those wonderful dreams you had as a kid.”
On Christmas Eve, young Clara returns home only to learn that a snowstorm may keep her family from joining her. As loneliness begins to settle in, two whimsical singers appear and whisk her away into Holidaze — an extraordinary world full of color, wonder, and breathtaking circus acts. As she journeys through this magical realm, Clara becomes part of the adventure, forming unexpected friendships and discovering her own courage. In a joyful twist, Clara is reunited with her loved ones before taking flight in a soaring aerial performance. After her odyssey, Clara joins the entire cast in a heartwarming celebration of imagination, connection, and the true spirit of Christmas.
Reimagined for 2026, Cirque Dreams Holidaze features a world-renowned cast of performers, including an ensemble of aerial circus acts, jaw-dropping jugglers, eye-popping acrobats, and much more. Featuring new music, including beloved holiday favorites performed live, sparkling scenery, stunning costumes, singers, dancers, and toy soldiers, Cirque Dreams Holidaze evokes the dreams behind a child’s eye on the most enchanting of nights.
