Yesterday, Cirque du Soleil has announced in a statement that “Zumanity” will be definitely closed after 17 years running at New-York New-York hotel and resorts in Las Vegas.
But in the statement, Cirque also confirmed that few shows have been now extended and that includes Michael Jackson ONE at the Mandalay Bay Resort.
“Cirque du Soleil and MGM Resorts International have solidified their commitment to the partnership and the four shows remaining in the Cirque du Soleil portfolio. Contract extensions for “O” at Bellagio, The Beatles LOVE at The Mirage, KÀ at MGM Grand and Michael Jackson ONE at Mandalay Bay have been signed. Additionally, Treasure Island and Cirque du Soleil have recommitted to Mystère with a contract extension. With these extensions, Cirque du Soleil shows are guaranteed to entertain audiences well into the future.”
This means that MJ ONE will stay longer at Mandalay Bay. However the re-opening is still unsure due to COVID-19.
“The timing of the shows’ reopening will be dictated first by the safety of guests and employees in compliance with the guidelines set forth by the Governor and other government agencies; and second, by the ability to operate the shows profitably.”
We will keep you updated on MJ ONE reopening as soon as possible
