Cirque du Soleil Shows In Vegas
Mystere at TI
After over 5,475 reviews, Mystere has earned a 4.5/5 star rating on TripAdvisor. Holding a spot close to my heart, Mystere was the first Cirque show I ever experienced, and it didn’t disappoint.
Typical of Cirque productions, the storyline is somewhat difficult to follow, but that doesn’t matter as the acrobatics and visuals are spectacular.
As an added bonus, tickets to Mystere tend to be on the cheaper end of the Cirque spectrum.

The Beatles LOVE at Mirage
With sets that are choreographed to hit songs like “Here Comes the Sun”, “Help!”, “Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds”, “Strawberry Fields Forever”, and “All You Need Is Love”, fans of the Beatles are sure to be enamored with LOVE.
Described as a “psychedelic journey through the band’s iconic song catalog”, The Beatles LOVE has earned 4.5/5 stars on TripAdvisor after 18,350+ reviews.

O at Bellagio
The name O is used due to the letter’s audible resemblance to the French word “Eau” meaning water, which you’ll realize is the focal point of the show.
O at Bellagio takes the typical acrobatic wonders displayed by Cirque and incorporates a 25-foot deep pool filled with 1.5 million gallons of water. While not the cheapest Cirque du Soleil show in Vegas, O is generally recognized as being among the best earning 4.5/5 stars after 11,775+ reviews.

Michael Jackson ONE at Mandalay Bay
Fans of the “King of Pop” will enjoy this Cirque show set to a collection of his music.
While the physical feats, acrobatics, and flying performers are sure to amaze, guests will also enjoy the focus on sound quality as each seat has 3 audio speakers built into them. In addition to an abundance of speakers, the theater is equipped with over 550 lighting features, 26 projectors, and a 40-foot wide LED screen.
Attendee reviews are strong, with the show earning 4.5/5 stars on TripAdvisor after 7,900+ reviews.

KA at MGM Grand
Although found near the bottom of my physical list, KA is tied as a top option with the other Vegas Cirque shows listed above it, earning an impressive 4.5/5 star score on TripAdvisor after 8,475+ reviews.
Personally, this was one of the more enjoyable productions I’ve seen in Vegas thanks to the amazing stage effects and “Wheel of Death” (pictured below) among other impressive acrobatic elements.
Highly recommended. You’ll be blown away.

Mad Apple at New York New York
Billed as a “Non-stop New York thrill ride”, Mad Apple is a new production from Cirque du Soleil that calls the old Zumanity theater home.
The show, unlike others under the Cirque banner, will combine comedy, music, magic, and acrobatic acts in the production.
Mad Apple opened in early 2022 and has already earned 3.5/5 stars on TripAdvisor after 175+ reviews.
While I have not seen Mad Apple, I’ve anecdotally seen a lot of positive commentary on social media since it opened.
Tickets start at around $70 and can be priced out with:

Although I used customer rankings to identify the “Best Cirque due Soleil Show in Vegas”, it’s sincerely difficult to go wrong as they all bring the “wow factor” that you’d expect at the price point.
