Howdy, cowpokes! Visit Dallas this 19th of October for the city’s penultimate showing of Cirque du Soleil’s “Songblazers: A Journey to Country Music!” After more than three weeks at the Music Hall at Fair Park, the high-flying tribute to the honky-tonk ditties of the West will surprise all in a stupendous Saturday special. “Songblazers,” directed and written by Amy Tinkham, is a two-hour theatrical event that chronicles an acoustic history that dates back to the 1860s!
Classic country songs from the legendary legacies of Hank Williams, the Dixie Chicks, Billy Ray Cyrus, and more will soar through the air, as will fearless acrobats in bold, gravity-defying fashion. There’s line dancing lined up, traditional circus acts, too, with an inspiring saga of two aspiring country music stars wrangling everything together. There’s no place for an “Achy Breaky Heart” here, folks! Clap your hands, stomp those boots, and sing along to another Cirque du Soleil extravaganza — buy your “Songblazers” tickets today!

This year, in official partnership with Gibson, Cirque du Soleil presents “Songblazers: A Journey Into Country Music” LIVE in select cities throughout the United States! Months after a commended debut in Nashville, the traveling production captured the hearts of audiences in Dallas like a good ol’ wranglin’ from a rodeo roundup. The four-week festivity is almost up, but not without a weekend to remember it by. Catch the troupe’s next-to-last performance at the Music Hall at Fair Park this Saturday, October 19th!
Celebrated as “a love letter to country music,” “Songblazers” follows the epic saga of two musicians who embark on a grand journey to craft the ultimate song, exploring the heritage born from honky tonk bars in a story equal parts comedic, action-packed, and soul-stirring. The event borrows 35 classic tunes from the last three centuries in homage to icons, such as Hank Williams (“I’m So Lonesome I Could Cry”), Merle Haggard (“Workin’ Man Blues”), Shania Twain (“Man! I Feel Like a Woman!), Billy Ray Cyrus (“Achy Breaky Heart”), and MANY MORE!
Oh! But let’s not forget — this is a Cirque du Soleil spectacle! In tandem with these infectious sing-alongs, “Songblazers” will also feature dazzling moves: stylish line dancing on the floor and world-class feats of acrobatics up in the rafters. You can hold your breath, but don’t look away. These audacious performers will push you to the edge of your seat with synchronized stunts that would be at home in Olympic gymnastics. Enjoy two hours of artistry in motion.
What’s more — tickets to the event will also cover access to the 2024 State Fair of Texas, giving y’all a two-in-one Saturday getaway for the entire family!
The stage is set — an impeccable reconstruction of the indelible Western aesthetic, with an eye-popping touch of Cirque du Soleil glamor. Backdrops painted by hand. Hay by the bales. Kegs and crates and an old-timey bar that will have you anticipate a classic Clint Eastwood entrance. The Music Hall at Fair Park is pulling all these strings and then some, so expect an immersive experience overflowing with vibrant sounds and vivid color.
You and your family will holler in sky-high joy on October 19th! Book your reservations to “Songblazers: A Journey to Country Music” live in Dallas before Cirque du Soleil departs for St. Louis, MO. We’ll see you there, cowpokes!
