Cirque du Soleil is returning to Australia later this year with a new production called Kooza.

The show will open in Sydney on August 25 before moving to Brisbane (from November 24), Melbourne (from January 20) and Perth (dates TBC).

Cirque du Soleil offers group discounts and a number of hospitality options for event planners looking to create an exclusive experience. Options range from lounge packages to VIP Rouge tickets, all the way through to premium backstage tour packages.

Kooza is the company’s eighth big top show to tour Australia and offers a return to the intimate and fundamental human elements of circus that combine thrilling acrobatic performance with the art of clowning.
