Discover the Extraordinary: Cirque du Soleil Entertainment Group Unveils New Brand Campaign

Cirque du Soleil Entertainment Group (“Cirque du Soleil”), a world- leading producer of high-quality live entertainment, launched its new brand campaign Discover the Extraordinary. A year after the relaunch of its shows worldwide, Cirque du Soleil is today renewing its commitment to take audiences beyond expectations, to the outer limits of  the imagination,  and to feel the deepest emotions. Four decades later, this commitment to always go further in creating the extraordinary fuels its daily mission.

With this positioning, Cirque du Soleil reinforces that its shows go beyond the expected and transcend languages, countries, and cultures. The company has always been more than a circus; it defies the rules of convention and is an emotion generator. It creates the most daring reality.

For the first time in several years, the company wanted to create brand awareness and mark its post- pandemic evolution with a unique and touching message that targets new and younger audiences while helping longtime fans rediscover Cirque du Soleil.

“As we all know, the Cirque du Soleil experience goes beyond the expected, and as a follow-up to “Intermission is Over” and “The Sun Rises” campaigns, “Discover the Extraordinary” infuses renewed energy into our brand message to help our fans and new audiences discover the extraordinary that we create every day,” stated Nickole Tara, Chief Growth Officer at Cirque du Soleil Entertainment Group.

In partnership with Sid Lee, this co-creation will once again challenge the limits of the imagination and possibilities. The campaign will live on print, social, and TV until December 31st, 2022, everywhere in North America.
