I like section 203/204 because you are far back enough, but central so that you can see everything happening and it won't hurt your neck looking up at the action.

Yes, it is worth the money. My family and I saw it twice and loved it both times. It's something different and fun.

I think the show is about 2 hours with no breaks. You can probably enter at least 30-45 minutes before it starts. Try to come early because there is a fun pre-show (I think the pre-show is 10-15 minutes before the real show starts)

If you are really curious, you can watch the show (from the DVD) on youtube.

La Nouba is, as are ALL Cirque shows, GREAT!!!! You'll love it. I have seen La Nouba three times, four shows in Las Vegas five times total and one in Chicago. It is about as unique an entertainment as you will ever experience.

For La Nouba, as well as all their shows, second tier seating is the best. There I would prefer sections 203, 204 or 205., though all seats are good. Lower tier makes it harder to see the action on the walkway between the tiers as well as all the action up high in the theater.

Show lasts about 90 minutes, be there about 30 minutes before showtime. Here is an easy to use seating chart....

We had to sit in handicap because of my mom's spinal problems, but it was well worth every single cent. My daughter was with us, 9 at the time, and she was fixated on everything for the whole show. I enjoyed it so much, and would love to see it again sometime. Someone above answered the time question and such, so I just thought I'd throw in my two cents!

We've only been once and sat in section 101. NOT a good seat! (But, we walked up at the last minute to see the show - our fault.)

The show is well worth the money, and lasts about 90 minutes. I believe doors open 30 minutes before the show starts. I hope you enjoy it!

We went last year The show is one and a half hours long. No break. Make sure to take a potty break before sitting The show was mesmerizing I looked at my DW aprox 50min into the show and asked if she realized how fast the time went by. Highly recommend the show and will return

I can't post the link because I don't have a high enough post count but just go to youtube and type "La Nouba" into the search engine. They are listed in parts (with numbers)

The quality isn't the best because someone taped their tv but you get an idea.

The doors usually open around 5:15 for the 6pm show, the pre-show starts at 5:45 and the show will end at 7:50. The doors open around 8:15 (sometime a little later, it depends on how long it takes to get the theater ready) for the 9pm show, the pre-show starts at 8:45 and the show will let out at 10:50.

The show is great, there really is not a bad seat in the house. The Cat 2 seats in section 203, 204, 205 are my favorite because there is a lot of arieal work in the show (from those seats you don't have to strain your neck looking up).

Have a great time, it is definetly an experience!

I've seen it twice as well, and believe it's worth every penny. I've sat in Sec 102 row F and felt it was too close to all the action. The other section I had seats in was 205 row CC closer to the middle and found these to be amazing!!! We didn't have to move our head back and fourth like we did in the closer seats. Also do get there early for the pre show and getting your snacks. I don't recommend to much to drink because you won't want to get up to leave. Enjoy!

I saw it in Aug. Awesome show and the 200's are perfect for watching the the high work. Everyone should watch the show if they have the chance.

I got a discount with my AP.

anyone know the price of the DVD they sell at la nouba? thanks yet again.

 

[pisces0384]

anyone know the price of the DVD they sell at la nouba?

I don't remember the price because I bought the DVD 2 years ago, but, a tip from my experience: DO NOT BUY THE DVD AT THE CIRQUE STORE. They overcharge by $5-10. Buy it at the Virgin Megastore. We bought it at the Cirque store but returned it 10 minutes later after seeing it at the Virgin Megastore. The employees at Cirque were fully aware of the price difference, but I guess they aren't allowed to say anything.

la nouba is soooooo worth it!!!! i cried!!!! it was soooooo good!!! i hope you enjoy it!!

La Nouba is fantastic; far and away the best Cirque show I've seen (seen other resident shows in Vegas & road shows - including Saltimbanco just this very afternoon in my hometown!)! Worth every penny we spent!

I think the back few rows of the 100 level, as close to center as you can get, are terrific seats. You are far enough away from the stage and high enough on the incline to enjoy everything without having to crane your neck, but still close enough to really see the performers faces & expressions.

I'd get there 1/2 hour or so early if you want to catch the opening act (just a silly slapticky kind of clown thing). It's a few hours long so get there even earlier if you think you need a last minute potty break.

Any seat in the front row in section 103 or 104 is great, those are the seats I always get. But there's so much going on that pretty much the first 6 rows from sections 101 to 105, there's not really a "bad" seat. My 2 cents worth.
