Cirque Du Soleil offer

[wayneg]

Not my favourite show but I know many like it.

Just got email from Travelzoo to say they Cirque are celebrating their 30th Anniversary and offering tickets from $30. Not read the details so hope someone finds a deal.

ETA: Looks like $49 for the one at DTD, from $30 for other shows.

They run the offers regularly on Travel Zoo and usually start them about 2 months ahead of the last day of validity so check back in a month or so.

We want to go see it again this year, but I haven't bought our tickets yet. Last time we also got discounted tickets but I got Tier 2 or 3 (I don't recall which). There isn't a bad seat in the house, as they so aptly put it, but there are much better places to sit than others. If you go onto the Cirque site and do a dummy booking it actually brings up a screen image of the view of the stage from your allocated seat, which gives you a fair idea of how far you are and what the view is like.

Lee - is it a lot better being nearer the front?

Would the back of tier 2 be bad? Or at the front off to the side in cat 2?

Sorry booking for the in laws and don't know what to book!

I wouldn't want to be too near the front. The show 'happens' all over the place which is why I think it is often said there is not bad seat because there is usually more than one thing going on at any given time. As a rule I tend to avoid front row seats in general when there is a stage involved. It is a lot easier to look up if you are further back than it is if you are right in the front and there is a fair amount of activity going on at a high level.

I don't have the seat plan open now, but I think Category 2 are really good seats. If you can get a Cat 2 and try for a centre view it is even better. The website has never let me choose my seats. It has always auto selected for me so you may have to take what you get

There is a walkway halfway up the seating, If you are just above that you see everything without having to turn around.

Not for when I am going either. But I am going to keep my eyes open. I quite fancy giving the show another whirl. I really was under whelmed by it when I first saw it, but I think there are some awful seats and we had them. We sat to the side of the stage and found that nearly all the show was performed to the front of the stage. So might give it a go at the front of the stage this time, but for the right price. I don't think its worth paying to much for.

The first time we saw it I waited for the day tickets were released and booked the most expensive in the house. I was totally underwhelmed, couldn't believe I had paid all that to see it.
Second time I bought thru a Travelzoo offer, about half price I paid for 1st visit but seats were only about 2 or 3 rows further back, I could almost touch the seat I had paid a fortune for. I did enjoy it more the 2nd time. I just think it is way overpriced.
Karen and Matt would see it again (I think Matt is trying for press tickets) but I have no interest in seeing it a 3rd time, I will just wander around West side & have a beer while I wait for them if he gets tickets.

I have seen it 3 times now and plan to go again in October.

Twice we have been sat in the very front row and, while I like the atmosphere there (you really feel a connection with the stars, especially when they come to the edge of the stage and when they come out at the end of the show), the others are right and you can spend a lot of the time looking 'up'.

We have had restricted view seats also which weren't too bad. Ideally, you would want to be in the centre seating area or just off to the left or right and between a third and half way up. But, as Lee says, there really isn't a bad seat to be had.

Tracy, if I were you I would wait and book tickets when they release the DVC discounted tickets (if they haven't already for your dates).

I sat just in front of this. Great seats. Seven years ago now but I loved it. My kids less so but they were only 5 and 8 at the time. As I recall it is quite long with no interval. The talent is astonishing though. Breathtaking.

Last show we went to was during September. I got the tickets about 10 days before we flew out.

Scooby, yes the show is 90 minutes long. DD was 8 when she saw it and I was worried about her losing interest but she wanted to go watch it again when it was over. I would never have predicted that but she's very keen to go watch it again.

 

[tinkerpea]

We are at disney for the 24th June as 1st wk is at Universal,
