Showcasing the famed troupe's first-ever live music arena event "Delirium" may be the most massive technical event ever to be created to tour arenas. This marks the first time in Cirque du Soleil history that lyrics have been especially created for the instrumental track. The show is an intersection of musical, multimedia, acrobatic, theater and dance performances.

Eleven musicians, eighteen dancers, six singers, eight acrobats and two actors will occupy the stage and perform at the same time.
