It was a magnificent show with excellent music, great humor, and truly breathtaking performances. A must-see. My palms are still sore from all the applause for the performers.

This is a fabulous night out and great entertainment! All the money goes to supporting up and coming artists through the Arts School of Cambodia. The artists are friendly, seem to genuinely want to share their love of all things acrobatics and circus and have a great laugh with the audience. To me, this is a must do when in Siem Reap and I cannot recommend enough!! Every night the story is different so you can go multiple times! No knowledge of Cambodian language is necessary to follow along!

(Translated by Google) Was here 10 years ago with our 3 children and repeated the success with our now adult children. It was like the last time an unforgettable experience and an absolute MUST when you are in Riem Reap. Super authentic and with a nerve and a big heart the circus/acrobat spirit is conveyed to the audience. Highly recommended for all age groups. (Original) Var her for 10 år siden med vores 3 børn og gentog succesen med vores nu voksne børn. Det var som sidst en uforglemmelig oplevelse og et absolut MUST, når man er i Riem Reap. Super autentisk og med en nerve og et stort hjerte bliver cirkus/akrobat ånden formidlet til publikum. Kan varmt anbefales for alle aldersgrupper.

A one hour very authentic and beautiful show but in my mind overpriced (especially given southeast Asian price levels). It has a very local vibe but it is far from being very professional. Not a must see event for 25-40$. Prices of the onsite food are also elevated.

Awesome. Brilliant. Excellent. Fabulous. Incredible. Really really REALLY amazing. This was the absolute best circus I have ever seen. It is clear from the performers' energy that they genuinely enjoy what they do and it shows in the enthusiasm that they bring to the performance. It is very much like a stage show rather than typical circuses. A story is told throughout the show, with many incredible tricks filtered within. The live music is so good that I forgot that it wasn't pre-recorded. So clever!

I loved it! It's quite expensive for Cambodia but you are paying for the students and their school so I def think it's fair. I bought my ticket just before the show at the ticket booth. The A category was unfortunately sold out (they all got a free water bottle!) But everyone has great places it doesn't really matter where you sit. Def do it when in siem reap. P.s. try to organize a transport before coming here, after the show it's pretty crazy

Absolute top tier entertainment. $18 well spent! The acrobatics were the best I have ever seen (and I’ve seen a lot of Britain’s Got Talent). Get these guys to the top! A creative and well executed masterpiece. I audibly gasped multiple times. Great popcorn too :)

Excellent show. Really a world-class circus and highly recommended if you are visiting the city. Get there about an hour early to enjoy the food stalls. Every seat is a good seat. Great for kids and adults alike.

Absolutely incredible performance! The circus skills were top class and the storyline/theme was funny and entertaining. The childrens performance beforehand was great to watch and lovely to see them developing stage skills and confidence in front of a crowd. All the staff throughout the evening were so friendly and kind. A must do in Siem Reap and an excellent break from temples :)

Went to the circus with our family and enjoyed the show. It was a bit odd in parts, but I’m not the most arty sort of person. But it is something different to do in Siem Reap and worth the visit. Some of the acrobatics were awesome. The food stalls there also do really good food, and some nice cocktails. Worth a visit for sure.

Great experience from start to end! We were treated to a pre-show performance by talented students and the main show itself was highly entertaining. We loved the energy from the performers which was supported by awesome live music. Overall, a highly recommended experience for the whole family.

Amazing experience, a must see if you are in Siem Reap! Every week there is a different show, so make sure to check the website which one it is! Get there early to see children performing the traditional Khmer dances! :)

We were recommended this performance and booked online. We chose the A premium seating, which was well worthwhile because it gave us centre stage viewing, very close to the performance. The performance was absolutely superb. A wonderful combination of acrobatics, dance, storytelling accompanied by live music and fabulous lighting. All done through a beautiful Cambodian cultural lens. If you’re in Siem Reap then this is definitely well worth seeing.
