  • Fun

    by Brent on 2022-12-13Canada Life Centre - WinnipegRating: 4 out of 5

    It was a great show but should have been advertised more for kids.

  • Good but room to improve

    by Lee on 2022-12-13Canada Life Centre - WinnipegRating: 4 out of 5

    The show was great but there’s definitely room for improvement. We sat in Sec/127 row 1 which is directly in front of the stage 1st row off the floor. Some parts of the show were a lil hard to see. Anyone sitting on the floor in the back row would definitely have had a difficult time. The only time we were able to see the bmx/scooter/rollerblade act was when they reached the top of the ramp & whenever the elf took the show to the floor we were unable to see properly! We sat in the exact same seats for Cirque De Soleil and seemed to have a much better view of everything as everything took place on stage. There were a few times during the show that seemed like it either needed more going on or…the act ls themselves needed to a lil shorter. Lastly, my granddaughter was upset that there were no souvenirs for sale. I was actually pretty shocked that there were no souvenirs for to buy as a lil keepsake, like lil elf hats or necklaces that light up, badges, silly Xmas themed t-shirts etc…with Holiday Dreams logo on them. Other than that we had a fabulous time. The performers were amazing, they were fun, silly and definitely masters of their craft! The contortionist was spectacular, the acrobats were fabulous and the trampoline show is always our favorite! We do look forward to seeing the show next year.

  • Meh

    by Echo on 2022-12-13Canada Life Centre - WinnipegRating: 2 out of 5

    This was sub par as far as Cirque goes. Scooters? Roller blades? A lip syncing diva? Disappointing, too expensive for the events, and most of the view was blocked because the floor seats weren’t staggered.

  • Low budget Cirque du Soliel

    by HH on 2022-12-13Canada Life Centre - WinnipegRating: 1 out of 5

    Disappointed, low budget - stage was very small, performers were average and flow of the show was very choppy.

  • It was okay, not great

    by Jonesie on 2022-12-13Canada Life Centre - WinnipegRating: 3 out of 5

    A couple of the acts were very good (aerial act, trampoline, and the male gymnast), but the overall production was lesser quality than expected. Also very short, probably because it was geared toward young families. If you have ever seen a Cirque du Soleil production, this was nowhere close to the quality and professionalism.

  • Just ok

    by Barb on 2022-12-13Canada Life Centre - WinnipegRating: 3 out of 5

    The show was ok but it was very short and not very professional. The flow was not very good. It would have been better with a story that continued for continuity between acts.

  • The show overall was okay. The kids liked it.

    by JM on 2022-12-13Canada Life Centre - WinnipegRating: 3 out of 5

    Show was okay. Some talented performers but was expecting more for the ticket price.

  • Sad

    by Che on 2022-12-13Canada Life Centre - WinnipegRating: 1 out of 5

    So unlike an adventure into the talent and perfection that Cirque is famous for. This non extravaganza was weak. Lacked timing. Not up to the Cirque Troupe standard. Disappointing. I would have to rethink spending $$$$ to attend another Cirque venue.

  • Holiday Disappointment

    by JG on 2022-12-13Canada Life Centre - WinnipegRating: 3 out of 5

    Was expecting the typical Cirque experience with the flying trapeze and other high rise acts. Was disappointed to find none of that in this show.

  • Holiday Show

    by Heather on 2022-12-12SaskTel Centre - SaskatoonRating: 3 out of 5

    Because it was a one night only show, a pared down version of a regular show is to be expected. However, it was pared down a bit too much and moved a bit slowly at times. The ramps with the bikes/blades/scooter was under whelming.

  • Holiday Dreams

    by Diane on 2022-12-11SaskTel Centre - SaskatoonRating: 3 out of 5

    It was okay but not nearly as good as other Cirque shows I’ve seen

  • Kids show

    by S. B. on 2022-12-11Rating: 2 out of 5

    No comparison to cirque du Soleil. You will be disappointed if you have seen a cirque du Soleil show. This is 100% a kids show. My bad for not doing more research on this show. We left after first half. Kids looked like they were having fun.

  • Holiday Dreams Circus

    by Pleasant Ben on 2022-12-11Rating: 1 out of 5

    Disappointed, my 5th grade class could have done a better job. We’d have to hire a contortionist and someone to work the lighting, nothing more than a two bit show.

  • Cirque du Soleil?

    by Bland on 2022-12-11Rating: 2 out of 5

    We were expecting something more grande. This show is advertised as being “spectacular”’, it is not. Nothing holiday about it. A few elves on a trampoline, some bad jokes, and a few very bendy acrobats. All independent performers, except for the BMX skit that you could probably watch at your near by skating park for free. Way over priced!!

  • Cheap

    by Mik on 2022-12-11Rating: 2 out of 5

    Wasnt sure what to expect could have been better though definately not your bang for your buck experience. Pretty much just got a few random acts the music was a little much, Didnt understand the theme .could have seen this show at a fair or smaller venue.

  • Fantastic Show

    by P.T on 2022-12-10Rating: 5 out of 5

    Highly recommend going to see this show. The performers were excellent and are incredible and amazing entertainers. Will definitely be going again next year. Thanks for coming to Winnipeg, Manitoba ! Merry Christmas !

  • Not so spectacular

    by P. G. on 2022-12-10SaskTel Centre - SaskatoonRating: 1 out of 5

    Very disappointing. Almost no arials. Only one laser light act which was a little weird. Some talented people but show needs work.

  • Not A Spectacular Cirque

    by Dissapointed on 2022-12-10SaskTel Centre - SaskatoonRating: 2 out of 5

    We were sitting in section Q on the side and could not see the last two numbers at all. Usually there is not a bad seat in the house, but we had bad seats. As for the performances they weren’t spectacular. OK would be the best rating I could give them.

  • Time well spent with grand-daughter.

    by Princess on 2022-12-10SaskTel Centre - SaskatoonRating: 5 out of 5

    We enjoyed the performances. I didn't know what to expect but there was some fantastic performers. My grandaughter is 9 almost 10 and I thought she was a great age to appreciate the talent. Thank you.

  • Sub Par Cirque Experience

    by Anonymous on 2022-12-10SaskTel Centre - SaskatoonRating: 3 out of 5

    Small cast, there was some really great talent jam packed onto an extremely tiny stage. There were a few accidents, first one right off the get-go, and could have been from getting used to the small stage size? Regardless, they put on a pretty good show. Not as blown away as a regular cirque du soleil, and didn't seem to follow much of a really story rather than an elf's dream to put on his own act. Would have liked to see more of a story with villains, struggle, and more eccentric costumes like one would normally see in a cirque du soleil. But the talent was there, my favorite being the contortionist. She deserved to be in a bigger, high quality show with her skill level something I have never seen before. Christmas much was pretty much what I expected, but then became repetitive as the same music replayed for acts in the second half. Overall, I wouldn't spend money to see again but was a great alternative to the same usually Christmas activities we normally go to at this time of year.
