Cirque du Soleil is returning to London's Royal Albert Hall with its spectacular show, OVO. Running from 9 January to 1 February 2026, tickets are available now and promise a showstopping spectacle.
Cirque du Soleil has a long tradition of performing at the Royal Albert Hall at the start of the year, and this time it's bringing OVO to the prestigious venue. Guests can look forward to a fun-filled, family-friendly performance exploring life from a bug's-eye view. The title OVO means "egg" in Portuguese and symbolises the show's ecological narrative.
The production brings ants, spiders, crickets, and dragonflies to life through music, movement, and breathtaking acrobatics. Expect crickets bouncing on trampolines and spiders dancing inside webs – with dazzling costumes, high-energy performances, and a truly immersive experience.
Tickets span from stalls to boxes, but if you'd like to feel like you are part of the show, book the Behind the Scenes Box. The ticket includes behind-the-scenes access and interactions with the artists. Plus, you arrive from the stage door and have a tour.
Cirque du Soleil was founded in 1984 by street performers Guy Laliberté and Gilles Ste-Croix. Since then, the company has created globally acclaimed productions, including Las Vegas shows The Beatles LOVE and Michael Jackson: ONE. It has earned numerous accolades, including seven Primetime Emmy Awards and a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
So far, OVO has been performed to more than seven million people in 155 cities across 26 countries, including the United Arab Emirates. As for the company itself, Cirque du Soleil now comprises around 100 performers from 25 different countries. Go on, join the circus.
