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.)

Ticket Giveaway: (CLOSED)

I have four tickets to give away to one lucky reader for the 8 p.m. show on Tuesday, May 31 at 8 p.m. Here's the drill:

1. To enter, leave a comment with your name and e-mail address so I can contact you if you win.

2. You may have up to two additional entries by A) becoming a fan of The Marketing Mama on Facebook and B) following me on twitter at @marketingmama and tweeting about the contest w/my name & a link to this post.

Sample tweet: Hey #twincities, Cirque du Soleil is coming to Mpls & @marketingmama has an exclusive discount & giving away 4 tix! http://ow.ly/52mpR

That's a total of 3 possible entries per person. Please leave separate comments for each entry alerting me to what you did, this helps me choose the winner at random based on # of comments.

3. Contest closes Friday evening (5/27) at midnight.

4. Winner will be chosen at random and e-mailed Saturday morning. Winner must respond to the e-mail within 24 hours to claim the tickets or I will choose another winner.

If you go to the show, I'd love to know what you think! Good luck everyone!
Missy

DISCLOSURE: Tickets for this giveaway were provided by Hadley Media on behalf of Cirque Du Soleil OVO show. I was also granted complimentary tickets to attend a preview show, along with many other bloggers and media in town.

I never enter this free giveaways, but this one is special to me. Cirque is a bit of an obsession for me and we cannot afford to go this time. It would be the first show I have missed in the mpls area ever! So here goes nothing.
I am entering my one of 3 now by leaving a message on your blog.
