O by Cirque du Soleil
Cirque du Soleil's "O" at the Bellagio is a captivating, aquatic-infused production that combines comedy, acrobatics, and water shows. It even made an iconic appearance in Imagine Dragons' "Sharks" music video, which featured synchronized swimmers, divers, and other amazing action performers. The majority of guests are left in amazement by the show's blend of humor and theatrics, despite its loud noises and somber times. We recommend you sit ten rows back for the best view, and after that, for the ideal photo opportunity, take in the free Fountains of Bellagio performance.

The Magician Study
Let's talk about the real thrill! This small performance designed especially for adults, takes place at a hidden location and the details are given the same day.

Sound cool right?
