Cirque has performed shows in the Netherlands before, quite often actually. Michael did too. We're small but we like a good show

Tour Expanding to 17 New Cities, Adding Dates As Anticipation Grows
Longtime Michael Jackson Collaborator Greg Phillinganes, Top Musical Designer Kevin Antunes Joining Creative Team
Exclusive Pre-Sale Starts March 9 and General Onsale Begins March 12
Montreal, March 9, 2011 – With anticipation growing for the launch of Michael Jackson THE IMMORTAL World Tour, Cirque du Soleil announced today it is adding 17 new cities to its tour in advance of its World Premiere October 2 in Montreal. In addition, new dates are being added to the existing schedule or extra seats released in more than 25 cities across North America.
Cirque du Soleil also announced that Greg Phillinganes, one of Michael Jackson’s key creative collaborators on some of his most memorable tours and albums, has joined the Michael Jackson THE IMMORTAL World Tour creative team as music director, providing an unparalleled depth of knowledge of Michael’s music and the live Michael Jackson experience. Phillinganes was music director for Michael’s Bad and Dangerous tours and worked on such iconic albums as Off The Wall, Thriller, Bad, Dangerous, Invincible, and the latest release Michael.
Kevin Antunes, one of the industry’s top musical designers, will join creative team as musical designer and will also team with Phillinganes to work on the score for this landmark production. Antunes has worked directly for Madonna, Justin Timberlake and *NSYNC, and has performed with artists such as Janet Jackson, Timbaland, Britney Spears, Aerosmith, Mary J Blige, Alicia Keys, Taylor Swift, Snoop Dogg and Christina Aguilera, among others.

The underpinnings of THE IMMORTAL World Tour are Michael Jackson’s powerful, inspirational music and lyrics—the driving force behind the show—brought to life with extraordinary power and breathless intensity. Through unforgettable performances Michael Jackson THE IMMORTAL World Tour underscores Michael’s global messages of love, peace and unity.

Aww man. I sincerly hope they come to Germany. Though they seem to be pretty expensive. I mean, tickets for a concert with MJ himself, where as expensive as a show, without MJ.... :smilerolleyes:

I'm Blessed with a Big Sister who loves me and knows me very well,She surprised me by telling me that She had just bought 2 tickets for next year's Cirque Du Soleil Michael Jackson Immortal World Tour. It's my Birthday gift but I can't see it until next year.She told me It's the bleeder's seats but there will be Screens to show everything and I could see the whole stage.I'll let you know when the Tickets get to my house for seat numbers.I was also told to get my operaglasses and 2 box of tissues. I can't wait.

I posted this in another thread, but I'll post it here as well. I hope someone can help me out -
I've had one horrible weekend trying to convince my parents to let me go...but they still won't budge. Money's not an issue at all, in fact they're ready to buy two tickets (they're saying I need an adult to take me, going with a friend won't work, they said it'd be just as dangerous/wreckless)...the only problem is that the center/auditorium it's being hosted at in my state is in the downtown area & they're saying it's too dangerous to go there at night...AGHH...so frustrating! Little tiny 10 year olds have gone there and and seen the Jonas Brothers, Bieber, Hannah Montana etc....but I can't go to see an MJ Cirque Du Soleil show?! DRIVES ME NUTS! On the off chance that they actually do let me go, I've been checking online to see what tickets are available, but it's not letting me do anything. It keeps saying "Sorry, no exact matches were found, but other tickets may still be available." Does that mean they're already sold out?!
Maybe I'm getting frustrated for no reason...Like is this show even worth going to? It's not MJ at all...it's just a bunch of circus people singing and dancing to his songs...right? Or are there people from TII coming too? What's so special about this tour?

Well, if you already have plan to go to Canada to visit your friend. Then, I guess it's worthwhile to get tickets to see the show. Why not? You will be there and seeing the show can be one of the attractions.
But, whether it's worthwhile to travel to Canada from UK just for the show? I don't know. It really depends on how you like Cirque Du Soleil.
Some of my friends really love Cirque show. I'm indifferent.
I think the show will definitely travel to Europe after its run in North America.

Have you tried inputting different searching criteria? Like different price range, differnent date?
Don't be frustrated yet! Seems like they are adding more shows now. May be you can still buy ticket when the show comes to your town. And, may be you can convince your parents to let you attend the show by then. :better:
As for whether it's worthwhile to go? I don't know. I got tickets. Of course I'm excited, but I'm not going to have unrealistic expectation. It's not a Michael Jackson concertcry, the show is indeed a Cirque Du Soleil show with Michael Jackson theme.

I went on ahead and took a chance and bought tickets for $144 each.
Cirque Du Soleil shows are supposed to be really good, so I think it's save bet the MJ show will be good too. I just felt I would regret it if I didn't go to this.
