Show was amazing but ended up paying an extra £27 booking through this app! Bad for business , not impressed

Excellent show! Seen a few in my time, vegas and broadway …. This is up there with them! Great price, and friendly atmosphere!

Amazing and nail biting at times with their very memorable stunts, music, costumes and theater! My 15-year old nephew and I loved it!!

Amazing show would definitely recommend I went alone and loved every second of the show was spellbound

We decided to only experience the one hour show and it was more than enough to entertain us. The motorcycle dome had me on the edge of my seat.
YOSHIRO_O, Mar 2025
The show lasts only 1 hour on a weekday. But you can enjoy the old and new of China and of course, their acrobatics are breathtaking. The show itself is well organized and time flies so fast as if you were watching an extremely intriguing film or play. Highly recommended if you have plenty of time to do in Shanghai.

Sadly we missed the whole show. You might be aware as we did not pick up the tickets we paid for. Our cab driver got us lost and we could not make it to the event that we were so looking forward to. Maybe next time .
Christopher_B, Nov 2024
Visited the 1h Show- good Mix and very nice acrobatics, the Dance acts are ok.
Worth a visit and not fully overcrowded.
Dennis_G, Aug 2024
Best Acrobatics Show. Don't miss this opportunity. Definitely must see in Shanghai while you were there.
Nathan_J, Jun 2024
All the performance were good except the one performer that uses birds. Those birds are not treated properly and their wings are clipped to limit their flying. Please remove this from the act!

Loved it! So intriguing and the performers were so talented. Highly recommend this, exceeded expectations.

Gloria_O, Mar 2024
I've never seen such an incredible show. I'm so glad we bought the tickets. My jaw dropped every minute. You MUST see it. The price is so worth it.
MARIA_F, Jan 2024
Enjoyed all the death defying acts. They had us is awe. Would definitely recommend this show to everyone.
Barbara_C, Oct 2023
It’s a very well conducted show with different kind of acrobatics, nice staging and great artists. Highly recommend it.
Jesus_L, Sep 2023
The show is excellent, worth seeing, unfortunately when we went to the box office to exchange our voucher we realised we could have bought tickets for the same seating area at half price of what we paid to viator, easy money right?
Kevin_P, Sep 2023
Great show. I was travelling alone but this is a must if you’re travelling with kids. Getting the tickets was easy, just show you Biator ticket and voila. I did seats in the VIP section, was right beside the action but all of the seats looked pretty good. Easy to catch a cab about a block away, it was crowded in that part of town but looked like a good place to walk around and explore. Not sure if you can buy tickets on your own but the instructions made it worthwhile for me at least to go through the tour company.

It was awesome show ! A must do while visiting Shanghai 😍 ! Unforgettable experienced with my husband . A trip before Covid
Steven K, Jan 2020
If visiting Shanghai I would highly recommend you take in this show. The performance was amazing. There are a couple of acrobat shows in Shanghai, but having spoke to others who had seen them all they also agreed that this was the best
Karen_B, Jan 2020
Althoug the stunts were incredible the performers didn't really build connection with the audience. But, I loved the silk acrobatics towards the end of the show and the 7 motorbikes inside the sphere w a.c astonishing.
Emma_G, Dec 2019
I was worried about getting tickets using mobile and not printing in china, but it was obvious where to go, and took less than a minute to pick up the tickets with no line from showing the voucher on my phone. Although we didn't have seats assigned, we received 2nd row seats in the section we paid for. It was an amazing view. The show is very aimed at the people in the VIP section, but I didn't feel I lost too much being in a cheaper seat. I just got a lot of side views rather than straight on. The show was great, and I thoroughly enjoyed myself.
Brendan_M, Nov 2019
A really fun and amazing show for the whole family. Kids were just enthralled and amazed by each act. A great venue to see the show, really no bad seats in this semicircle theatre. Highly recommended
ramibenben, Oct 2019
I was looking forward to see the Chinese acrobats that I heard so much about. The venue was perfect and one can see well from every part of the place and there is no good reason to go for the expensive ones. Further, the hall was far from being full, which means that you can buy tickets on your own before the show.
Most of the acts were seen in any mediocre circus, and in some cases in more elegant ways with fewer mistakes.
The most impressive act was the motorcycles in the metal ball, bettor than I have ever seen.
In summary, in Shanghai there are not many 'attractions' and this could be nice way to spend an evening - too expensive for what you get-- in my opinion (many seemed to likeit 0. -
Gera_W, Oct 2019
The show is fun for all ages. Great performance and colorful show. We sat at area D in the front row, which is considered the worst place in the theater, but we were able to see everything in all details and get the maximum of this show. Highly recommended!
Matthew_R, Oct 2019
Each of the acts were amazing. The venue was so small so you have unbelievable visibility of the show. Highly recommend!

I visited with my son. It was awesome. Absolutely stunning performances. Online ticket purchase through VIATOR was a breez.
Yaron_H, Aug 2019
Some parts were very good.
Most of the show was boring.
Kids were on their phones most of the show.
There were some exciting parts but mostly slow.
Not worth the money
