Have you been to Cirque du Soleil? I have seen other Cirque du Soleil shows (and have gone behind the scenes) and I recently got to see Echo for the first time when it arrived in Seattle. It will be here from January 28-March 15th 2026 in Marymoor Park under the Big Top (my favorite are the Big Top Cirque du Soleil shows). And this show is fantastic. It is not as shock and awe with seemingly death defying acts as other Cirque shows I’ve seen but the combination of music, gorgeous aesthetic design and acrobatics made this one feel exquisite. There is a giant puppet that emerges at one point in the show and to me it was worth it to go just to see that puppet in real life. I posted a few pics/videos from the Cirque Echo show on Instagram if you want to check those out too.
Some things to know before you go:
Cirque Du Soleil Echo is 125 minutes long including a 25 minute intermission. Parking will $25 and there aren’t many alternatives to parking for the show (except I think you might be able to light rail here now to theMarymoor Village Station-make sure you check the schedule and it’s probably about a 20 minute walk)
Last year parking for Cirque du Soleil at Marymoor Park was $25 so it was nice to find out this stayed the same and it could add 10-15 minutes to walk from the car to the show depending on how far you have to park out in the lots. Doors opened an hour and a half before showtime and there were concessions you could buy and consume during the show. I went on media night and we were given popcorn and water (I saw that you could get two waters and a popcorn for $21) and I bought chicken nuggets for $13 and also we saw someone else eating some delicious gummies from the concession and couldn’t resist those either (They were under $10 and extremely good)
There were also portable restrooms that are fancier than concert porta potties if that is something you’re curious about too-they had running water and were very clean. I definetly appreciate better than porta potty bathrooms at shows.
Can you bring kids to Cirque du Soleil Echo?
Not only can you bring kids to Cirque du Soleil Echo when it comes to Redmond but also there is a discount for kids’ tickets. I’m not sure if this is for all of the Echo shows, but under the deal tab on the Cirque du Soleil Echo website you can find tickets for kids 16 and under for $15.
And even if you don’t bring kids there is a four ticket promotion for 15% off if you are buying at least four tickets as well. If you are getting together a big group of 10 or more there is a group booking option that you can find under the deals tab too. As always these kinds of promotions are subject to availability and can change at anytime so make sure you always check the show’s website for current information.
