Cirque du Soleil® returns with Saltimbanco™, the show which started Australia’s love affair with the celebrated company when it first toured here in 1999.

Saltimbanco — from the Italian “saltare in banco” (to jump on a bench) — features an international cast of over 50 performers and musicians from more than 20 different countries. Presented in premium ‘intimate-mode’ arena venues, this is classic Cirque at its best – a thrilling, kaleidoscopic celebration of awe-inspiring artistry and agility.

Set inside an imaginary metropolis of colourful inhabitants, Saltimbanco will enthral with the seemingly impossible balancing, jumping and spinning of the Chinese Poles and Russian Swing, the gravity-defying Bungees and Trapeze, and the crowd-pleasing Juggling, Acrobatic Bicycle and Clowns. Breathtaking acrobatics and extravagant design are mixed with spectacular costumes, amazing lighting, humour, enchanting live music and magic.

Overflowing with colour, fun and amazement, Saltimbanco is for everybody to enjoy.
