UBS is proud to be the Presenting Partner of Cirque du Soleil’s internationally acclaimed show, KOOZA, in Hong Kong.
In partnership with entertainment producers Great Entertainment Group and Mast International, the Hong Kong leg of the legendary show will mark Cirque du Soleil’s first appearance in Hong Kong since 2018 and be the first stop of a multi-destination Asia Tour.
Audiences are invited to enjoy the show in the Big Top at the Central Harbourfront Event Space from 21 May.
First launched in 2007, KOOZA delivers a signature Cirque du Soleil experience in its most exciting form. This spectacle features high-flying acrobatics, whimsical characters, lavish costumes, colourful sets, hilarious clowns, and a powerful live score.
Filled with chills, thrills, laughter, and wonder, KOOZA unfolds a non-stop, adrenaline-packed series of edge-of-your-seat surprises. The show’s narrative follows the journey of the Innocent, who is transported to a fantastical world under the watchful eye of the Trickster.
Taichi Takahashi, Head of UBS Investment Bank, Asia Pacific, said: “We are thrilled to announce the return of Cirque de Soleil to Hong Kong, bringing joy and wonder to the people of this vibrant city. At UBS, we are committed to giving back and delivering exclusive experiences to our community.
As the center of Asia where international and local cultures connect seamlessly, we believe that Hong Kong is the perfect stage for such a world-renowned event.”
Duncan Fisher, President, Touring Shows Division at Cirque du Soleil, said: “We are thrilled to announce the return of Cirque du Soleil to Hong Kong with our record-breaking production of KOOZA. Since our first visit to Hong Kong in 1996, audiences and interest for Cirque du Soleil have continue to grow over the years. We look forward to the return of our Big Top at the Central Harbourfront to inspire new audiences.”
