Bear witness to Cirque du Soleil - Songblazers, “a love letter to country music!” This Monday, October 14th, the Music Hall at Fair Park will kick off the final week of the company’s Dallas City residency. Written and directed by Amy Tinkham, the show will transport you into a story of two aspiring musicians as they embark on a journey to greatness.
It’s musical by the books but a 21st-century circus by the rafters, so gasp in wide-eyed wonder at death-defying feats of acrobatics! On the floor, feast your eyes on dance numbers by the dozen, brimming with classic tunes like “Achy Breaky Heart,” “Workin’ Man Blues,” and more from the genre’s enduring canon — from 1867 to 2024! “Songblazers” is a one-of-a-kind experience that pays homage to country music’s heritage in two hours of high-flying, line-dancing, knee-slapping, and guitar-toting goodness.
Book your seats today and shed your autumn-auburn outlooks to make way for Cirque du Soleil LIVE in Dallas!

Autumn makes for a scenic kind of season, one of ambient sounds and bookish aesthetics. But for Cirque du Soleil, there’s a thrill to be had. Spectacles to be seen. Applause to be heard!
Buckle up, folks. The world’s largest modern-day circus brings a BRAND NEW live exhibition for every one of you hollering there in the Lone Star State! “Songblazers” — A Journey Into Country Music — began its month-long residence in the Music Hall at Fair Park on the 25th of September, wowing audiences day in and day out with classic cirque magic. Watch them this October 14th as they kick off their final week in Dallas. It’s a shindig you shouldn’t miss, written and directed by Amy Tinkham!
"...The approach that I took was to go deeply into the history and crafting of a song, which is really key to country music. Telling the truth and telling the story is the beautiful part of country music so that’s what Songblazers is about.” Amy Tinkham - Show Director & Writer
Cirque du Soleil’s latest theatrical production marries their signature airborne artistry to the traditions of good old country music! Step right up and experience the show: two high-flying hours that tell the tale of two songwriters paving their path to spotlit stardom, honoring the real-life history of songs from the acoustic South and West. Your jaw will drop at the sights. Your feet will stomp along with the rhythms. “Songblazers” is a marvel that stirs the heart with guitar-grooving, fiddle-fiddling festivity as it rouses the spirits with sing-alongs, dance, and daredevil acrobatics! See below for the Songblazers Soundtrack, a zippy collection of iconic country anthems, featuring the original single — “Carnival Heart!”
