Which Cirque du Soleil in Las Vegas in the best?

Question

My friends and I are going to Vegas in 3 weeks and we wanted to see a Cirque du Soleil show...However, there are 5 different shows to choose from. From the ones listed below, which would be the best one to see??

Thanks in advance!

"Love" , "O", "KA", Mystere", "Zumanity"

Answer 1

I go to Vegas two to three times a year - I love the shows.

Without question, "O" is the most fantastic show you will ever see. I've seen every Cirque show except for the one in Disney Orlando, and nothing comes close.

The show itself is "indescribable" and the cast performs the most unbelievable feats on land, in the air and in the water. The French word for water is "eau", pronounced "O", hence the name of the show. Go "O", you will not regret that decision.

Here's some other thoughts. . . people loved Celine Dion - just not my cup of tea. The new Beatles/Cirque show, "Love" is at the Mirage. I plan on seeing that on my next visit - it's gotten good reviews. As for a suggestion for another show, Mama Mia is great, and Danny Gans is superb. Either one of those would make your night. Blue Man at the Venetian is very unique, and the Sintas at the Rio is a very good family oriented show. If you like magic – Lance Burton is the best. I saw Dirk Arthur at the Tropicana on my last visit – really a class “B” act!

For fun we went to see the Neil Diamond tribute show at the Riviera - Jay White, the fellow that does Neil, is nothing less than perfect! His appearance, voice, clothes and moves ARE Neil Diamond. I thought that I was at a Neil Diamond concert. The room is rather small, maybe 200 people in the audience. We had a ball. You can get half-price tickets for this and many other shows at ticket outlets up-and-down the strip. The outlets are called "Tickets 4 Tonight" and they go on sale about 11:00 AM (first-come-first-served) for that night's performances only.

Another good source for reliable discounts are the books (such as “What’s on in Las Vegas” or “Las Vegas 24/7”) that are distributed in most hotels. The also give good info on where to eat and what to see. They’re really good little pocket guides!

The best free show is the Fountains at Bellagio - they perform every 15 minutes after dark - just spectacular. The Siren’s of TI show at Treasure Island is also good Other free attractions of note are the Lion Habitat at MGM, the Volcano and the White Tigers at Mirage, and the fountains inside the Forum Shops at Caesar’s Palace. If your going downtown, the Fremont Street Experience is truly on-of-a kind, and don’t pass up the ’world famous’ $.99 shrimp cocktail at the Golden Gate Hotel! Head over to the Rio (with free transportation from Harrah’s) to see the Carnival in the Sky.

I strongly suggest that you take a ½ day away from the strip and go to Hoover Dam. That is quite a sight! There are many tour companies to chose from that will pick you up right at your hotel.

Hope this helped.

Answer 2

Mystere and O are incredible shows, probably the best I have ever seen, and I've been to many. I think Mystere was more funny entertaining than O. Zumanity is more of an adult show, exotic/erotic, so I guess it depends on who you are seeing the show with. I have not seen Love or KA, but really you can't go wrong with any Cirque show - they really put a lot of effort and skill into them. It was worth every penny. Personally, I would recommend Mystere first, unless you are going with a significant other, than Zumanity.

Answer 3

Zumanity

Answer 4

We've seen most of them but the one that had the most impact on us was Mystere at Treasure Island. We loved "O" but Mystere was a lot more fun. It's a VERY up show while "O" is a little darker.

I recommend most of them but definitely think Mystere should be the first one seen.

We're seeing Love in April. Can't wait!

Answer 5

ive seen all of the cirque de soleil shows in vegas and i think the best is zumanity but there is nudity ok

Answer 6

I preferred Mystere over O...but have heard that Zumanity is HOT!

Answer 7

I heard Zumanity was great, but it is more for adults because of the nudity. But its Vegas and you would want to see something different like that anyway

Answer 8

I saw Mystere last month it was awesome!!!!!!!!!!! I've heard O is better yet. You're gonna love whatever one you choose. Zumanity is more adult oriented though they wear just skin colored body tights so you can see their bodies. Hope this helps!

Answer 9

I don't remember which one i saw. this one isn't listed but La Nouba is an excellent show too. they have good songs like Urban and Reve Rouge, Distorted and A la lune.

Answer 10

I have only seen Mystere..But I want to see them all ...I really don't think any of them are bad...
