The "KURIOS" Experience Like No Other

KURIOS – Cabinet of Curiosities is a highly acclaimed show by critics and audiences alike. The signature style of Cirque du Soleil is clearly evident: the performance combines breathtaking acrobatics with a refreshing touch of poetry, artistry, and humor. KURIOS allows everyone to escape the reality of everyday life. You will step into a unique world inspired by steampunk, where your dreams come to life.

Welcome to an alternate universe where wonders await those who trust their imagination. Peek into the mechanical laboratory of an inventor, where everything has its fixed order. One day, characters from another world will enter this predetermined system, turning the inventor's concept completely upside down. His creations begin to come alive before

his eyes. Once the doors to this realm of wonders are unlocked, time comes to a complete standstill. The visible becomes invisible, and perspectives shift; KURIOS erupts in a celebration of the power of imagination.

The KURIOS show premiered in Montreal in 2014. It has already been admired by more than 6 million spectators in 35 cities around the world. The troupe has performed over 3,000 shows.

Thawing of reptiles at Prague Zoo

Zoo Prague has begun to awaken its hibernating residents from their dormancy (similar to mammalian hibernation). Despite the outdoor temperatures, the zoo is fully preparing for spring, and the keepers are gradually filling the exhibits of reptiles and amphibians. After several months of hiatus, all the inhabitants of the Terrarium pavilion and the recently opened Gobi exhibit are now on display – including the legendary "olgoj chorchoj," a Tatar sand boa. In the desert terrarium Kattakum in the Pavilion of Carnivores and Reptiles, passionate courtship has begun among the lizards, and the Indian gharials have started eating fish again after their winter break.

The phenomenon of new circus: Art that changes the rules

New circus is an artistic phenomenon that has gained immense popularity in recent decades. It transforms traditional circus performances into a complex work of art that combines acrobatics, theater, dance, music, and sometimes even multimedia elements. Unlike the classical circus, you will not find acts with trained animals; instead, it focuses exclusively on human abilities, creativity, and emotions. Performances, which often contain deeper messages in addition to great acrobatics and precise choreography, attract millions of visitors around the world.
