Reviews for Phare - The Cambodian Circus
1065 reviews
A must see show if you’re in Siem Reap! In addition to the amazing feats of acrobatics, there was plenty of humorous cheekiness and heart pumping music whose origins are from Cambodia but universally appreciated to keep it feeling like any other circus. It’s great for all ages not just the kids. Also come for the food court, pre-show folk performances from the young artists and souvenir shop featuring local artists.

Highly recommended to visit here while in Siem Reap. We had a fantastic evening and enjoyed the show. There is street food and pre-show entertainment and a lovely arts and craft shop so I recommend to come early.

We absolutely loved this performance. Great storyline and so much talent. The cause is also amazing. A must-see when in Siem Reap.

This was the best circus show I've ever seen, and that's including lots of Cirque du Soleil performances. Totally stripped down the big-box circus productions to what it's all actually about. Beautiful storylines, deep cultural love letters, and a serious, meaningful cause behind it. The only time I've ever left a circus show wanting to go see it again the next night. Seriously, do not miss this.

I didn't expect for it to be a little theatrical. It was a nice story and we enjoyed following along. The artists were all very talented ❤️ We sat in Section B and had a nice view. Though it's really just a small venue.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ (3 out of 5) The show was okay, but I was expecting something closer to a traditional circus with intense stunts and flying acrobatics — like what’s shown in the promotional photos and in posts from previous viewers (those photos were actually the reason I booked this). What I saw felt more like a theatrical play, with very few mid-air or high-energy performances, which was disappointing. I understand and respect that the show supports a great cause, but calling it a “circus” creates the wrong expectations. I’ve seen other circus shows before, and this didn’t quite match up. Maybe the lineup varies on different nights and some versions include more of the advertised acts. But for tourists who may only get to see it once, it would be ideal if every performance showcased the best the production has to offer. That said, I really appreciated the two live musicians — they played nonstop for the entire hour and brought a lot of energy to the experience.

An Amazing show! An amazing combination of history, comedy, emotion, acrobatics and storytelling. REad a bit of camodian 1900s history on wikipedia before going in and you will love it.

Absolutely amazing! I couldn't stop watching and the skill level and variety of entertainment (circus, gymnastics, dancing, acting) was incredible. Unbelievable value and a brilliant night out. The food and drinks arrangements beforehand are also very good. A must-go when visiting Siem Reap!

(Translated by Google) Fantastic experience! A truly spectacular show with genuinely talented artists. Moving, fun, and breathtaking! I highly recommend it for all ages. The pre-show with the kids is also great fun, so don't hesitate to arrive early to see it. And the food served is very (very) good, at reasonable prices 👌🏻 (Original) Super expérience ! Un vrai spectacle avec de vrais artistes talentueux. Émouvant, amusant, époustouflant ! Je recommande ++++ pour petits et grands. Le pré show avec les jeunes est également très sympa donc n'hésitez pas à venir tôt pour le voir. Et la nourriture servie est très (très) bonne, à des prix raisonnables 👌🏻
