Cirque Du Soleil - Twas The Night Before

Cirque Du Soleil - Twas The Night Before at Fox Theatre - Detroit

Four o'clock on a December Saturday can be the sweet spot between holiday errands and a night at home. Or it can be the moment you watch an acrobat do something your brain insists shouldn't be possible. 'Twas the Night Before… by Cirque du Soleil offers the second option. The company's first holiday production pairs a girl's search for lost Christmas wonder with a stage full of movement, music and remarkable physical discipline. It's a story with a heart, not just a parade of tricks.

If 'Twas the Night Before… by Cirque du Soleil holds a place in someone's imagination—perhaps they've followed the company's holiday debut or fallen in love with the idea of acrobatics woven into a Christmas narrative—this Saturday 4:00 PM performance at the Fox Theatre in Detroit on December 19, 2026 offers the chance to share that attachment. Inspired by Clement Clarke Moore's A Visit from Saint Nicholas, the show gives that interest a seasonal story to follow.

At the Fox Theatre in Detroit on December 19, the 4:00 PM show gives friends and families a chance to enjoy an afternoon that feels like an occasion. The familiar holiday soundtrack provides a way in; the aerial and acrobatic performances are what make the experience unmistakably live. You can't pause the moment to catch your breath, and that's part of the appeal. Choose seats for this performance and trade an ordinary Saturday afternoon for a memory worth talking about.
