Description: Enter the world of Cirque du Soleil for an up, close and intimate look at some of their most iconic shows. Swing into a Mexican daydream in THROUGH THE MASKS OF LUZIA, or dive into a hypnotic underwater universe in DREAMS OF ‘‘O’’. Challenge your perceptions in INSIDE THE BOX OF KURIOS and watch an epic battle unfold in the mythical world of KÀ – THE BATTLE WITHIN. Cirque du Soleil VR brings these stunning experiences to life like never before.

Review: Let’s face facts here, it is going to be a VERY long time before you can go and watch Cirque du Soleil in real life and for many of us that will never happen, so this app that is a collection of all their other mini-experiences is well worth the small £4.99 price tag. Sadly the quality of the 360 video is a little dated now and some of it looks pretty crappy when compared to other 360 video experiences on the Quest, but I think it’s still worth a look if you just want to get away from it all for a while and enjoy the art form that is the Cirque du Soleil.
