Great Energy

This was a great experience. My son and I had a great time. The music is timeless and the performers were amazing. It was a great combination of Cirque creativity with MJ’s music.

A fun experience that is...

A fun experience that is perfect for folks looking for something to fit into a couple of hours. The second part of the exhibit feels awfully real.

Great show. Not so great Viator experience.

The show is fantastic. But be warned, it can be a little extra loud in some areas and there’s strobing lights. The other thing to remember - arrive early. Our viator tickets were not recognized. We had to go to the ticket counter and get things straightened out.
