Cirque du Soleil is returning to the Netherlands for the first time in years. Tickets are now on sale. Cirque du Soleil is bringing its energetic and highly acrobatic production OVO to Amsterdam and Rotterdam for the first time. OVO, an exciting Cirque du Soleil show, is a colorful look at a new day in the life of insects; a non-stop feast of energy and movement. Through breathtaking acrobatics that highlight the unique personalities and abilities of diverse insect species, OVO explores the beauty of biodiversity in all its contrasts and vibrancy.

Boek tickets

OVO can be seen in Ziggo Dome Amsterdam from 7 to 10 September, and in Rotterdam Ahoy from 14 to 17 September. OVO ticket sales have started via ticketmaster.nl. Group tickets and discounted tickets for children 14 and under are also available.

What I love about Cirque du Soleil is that it is great fun to visit with the whole family. I’m going to the matinee show on Sunday in Amsterdam!
