Players will have the opportunity to explore rich, interactive virtual environments, where they can (re)experience the emotion and magic of Cirque du Soleil performances, while enjoying a unique immersive narrative specific to the metaverse. This collaboration is not limited to virtual experiences, but will also include collections of exclusive digital objects, such as avatars and thematic objects, enabling users to personalize their experience within The Sandbox. This initiative opens up new creative perspectives, enabling the art of live performance to be transported into virtual spaces while fostering emotional bonds with spectators. As part of the collaboration, players will immerse themselves in interactive games, called "Experiences", inspired by two iconic Cirque du Soleil shows: Luzia and a second show to be unveiled at a later date. "Cirque du Soleil has consistently redefined live performance through imagination and emotion, and we're thrilled to welcome them to The Sandbox to infuse this spirit into the metaverse. This collaboration allows us to explore new forms of immersive storytelling to deliver the thrill of the live show in an interactive format, true to the energy of a live performance," said Arthur Madrid, CEO and co-founder of The Sandbox.

Founded in Montreal in 1984, Cirque du Soleil is one of the world's largest and most influential performing arts companies. A true entertainment icon, it has revolutionized the world of the traditional circus by combining circus arts, theater, dance, music and innovative technologies. The company employs nearly 5,000 people, including 1,300 artists from 50 different countries.
