Cirque du Soleil's limited engagement at the Pier is scheduled from January 20-March 25, during which time humans dressed resplendently as grasshoppers, ants, and ladybugs sail through space in ways that seem impossible for humans and insects alike. Whether you're already Cirque fans or about to be, OVO is a great show for dropping kids' jaws in wonder.

We're thrilled to be hosting a family of four for free to see Cirque du Soleil: OVO at the Santa Monica Pier on Wednesday, February 1st at 8:00pm - a prize worth $283!
