Cirque Du Soleil OVO - Discounted Tickets & Giveaway

CONGRATS to Brenda on winning the Four-Pack of tickets - I hope you have a fabulous time!!! :)

Cirque du Soleil’s touring production OVO is hitting Minneapolis and friends and readers of the Marketing Mama can receive special discounts on select performances and enter a giveaway for a four-pack of tickets.

Cirque du Soleil opens in Minneapolis Friday, May 27. OVO will perform for a limited time under the trademark blue-and-yellow Grand Chapiteau (Big Top) at the Mall of America.

OVO is a headlong rush into a colorful ecosystem teeming with life, where insects work, eat, crawl, flutter, play, fight and look for love in a non-stop riot of energy and movement. The insects’ home is a world of biodiversity and beauty filled with noisy action and moments of quiet emotion. Fun for the whole family, ages 2+.

Exclusive discounts for Marketing Mama readers:

Individual ticket discounts - 40% discount on individual tickets for Seating Levels 2 & 3. Follow this link to buy tickets, no promo code needed.

Family 4-pack discounted tickets - The Family 4 Pack is available for performances on Sunday to Thursday 8pm and Friday 4pm. Only purchases from 4 to 8 tickets may benefit from this special package. Two adult and two child tickets start at $115 plus applicable service charges. A minimum of one adult ticket and one child ticket must be purchased within each Family 4 Pack. Follow this link to buy the tickets, no promo code needed.

(I haven't priced out which of these discounts is a better deal for families, so be sure to compare the two options.)

We pretty much LOVE the movie Madagascar around here. So when I heard they made the movie into a new Broadway musical MADAGASCAR LIVE! -- and that it's coming to Minneapolis? I was pretty excited.

This is how much Alex and Avery love Madagascar...
