How the Las Vegas shows differ
The four Cirque du Soleil productions on the Strip are O at the Bellagio, Mystère at Treasure Island, KÀ at the MGM Grand and Michael Jackson ONE at Mandalay Bay. Each lasts about 90 minutes without an intermission. They differ in style, in the days they run and, most of all, in the minimum age.
Showtimes follow a weekly pattern, with dark days and a few dated exceptions. Check your date on the booking page before you plan a dinner or a trip around it. Ticket prices vary by date and seat category, so this page does not quote them. The tour cards below show current prices where available. All four productions sell tickets into 2027.

The shows in detail
What each production involves and who it suits.
O at the Bellagio
A water and acrobatics show, 90 minutes without an intermission. It runs Wednesday to Sunday at 6:30 and 9 p.m. The minimum age is 5, and guests under 18 need an adult. Will-call tickets must be collected no later than 1 hour before the start.
Mystère at Treasure Island
A Cirque production that welcomes all ages. Children under 1 sit on a lap for free, and from age 1 a ticket is needed. Discounted tickets exist for ages 1 to 11, with no fixed discount amount. The show lasts 90 minutes, and the weekly schedule is on the booking page.
KÀ at the MGM Grand
Children are admitted from age 3, and guests under 18 need an adult. The show is 90 minutes, with two performances on each of its five days: Monday to Wednesday in the evening, and Saturday and Sunday earlier.
Michael Jackson ONE at Mandalay Bay
Music, dance and acrobatics, Thursday to Monday at 6:30 and 9 p.m. Children under 5 are not admitted. Cirque also asks that guests under 16 come with an adult. The show lasts 90 minutes without an intermission.
Going with children
There is no single age limit across the Cirque shows.
Mystère is for all ages, KÀ admits children from 3 and O from 5, and Michael Jackson ONE does not admit children under 5. For Mystère, a child from age 1 needs a ticket, and discounted tickets exist for ages 1 to 11. If you travel with a young child, check the age rule and the show length first. Ninety minutes without an intermission is a long time for small children.
Book seats together when you travel as a family, and arrive early enough to find the theater inside the resort.

Final price
Ticket prices vary by seat and date, and fees can be added at checkout. Compare the total price before you pay.
Magic and comedy
Besides Cirque, Las Vegas has magic and comedy shows. One example is Mad Apple, a 90-minute show without an intermission with comedy for adults, where guests under 18 are not admitted. Check the dates and the age limit of any such show before you buy.
Getting there
The theaters sit inside the resorts. The Monorail runs from MGM Grand to SAHARA, and the Deuce bus runs around the clock.
