The company announced on Tuesday that it is scheduled to stop by the Scope Arena from January 26 through January 29, 2023, for its hit performance series, "Corteo." 

The performance, which has been seen by over 10 million people since 2005, means joyous procession. 

In a world of awe and fun, you'll get to watch the story of a clown who imagines his own funeral taking place in a carnival. 

Many Cirque du Soleil shows had to be canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but this marks the return of the tradition to the area. 

For the first time in Cirque du Soleil history, this show also puts the stage in the middle and divides the audience into halves that are facing each other, which allows for a more interactive experience.
