- This sensory masterpiece captures the spirit of Mexico at Randall’s Island Park in New York, with Simon Carpentier’s vibrant score leaping through Latin American styles.
- The first-ever use of water in a Cirque du Soleil Big Top show transforms acts like the Aerial Straps into a mesmerizing cenote-inspired marvel.
- With 115 cast and crew members from 25 countries, LUZIA celebrates the artistry of a truly global team, featuring performers from 19 nationalities.

Step into the vivid imagination of LUZIA, where Mexico’s soul comes alive. Inspired by its people, places, and stories, this Cirque du Soleil spectacle whisks you through folklore and modernity. Light ("luz") uplifts, rain ("lluvia") refreshes, and breathtaking acrobatics ignite a surreal journey. From cenotes to cabarets, LUZIA weaves an intricate mosaic of Mexican culture. With a first-ever Big Top water feature, the aerial straps act immerses you in the Mayan mystique of sacred sinkholes. Behind the magic? A 3,500-litre water basin and 94,657 drain holes in the stage.
Composer Simon Carpentier’s electric score leaps across Latin rhythms like the show’s Running Woman, a character who embodies joy, emotion, and freedom. Meanwhile, costumes like the intricate Singer’s shawl pay homage to Mexico’s master craftspeople, turning every thread into art. Marvel at monarchs as the Running Woman unfurls 6-meter silk butterfly wings, honoring the epic journey of these iconic creatures. Or cheer on the hummingbird hoop divers as they zip through 75 cm rings, feathers flying and precision soaring. With 115 artists and crew from 25 countries, LUZIA is a cultural kaleidoscope that blurs the line between dreams and reality.

The show was really great, and I'd go back for that alone. There's always a mix of physical prowess and poetry. Magnificent. And thank you for that. It was a bit spoiled by the seats, which were far too narrow and stuck together. Plastic strapontin. Neighbor from the back, a bunch of kids who bombarded the front seats with kicks (my back) and my overexcited neighbor who spent the show screaming even during the very poetic moments. This closeness a touche with the neighbors and too bad.
