Attend leisure Corteo SEPTEMBER 6-10 | PECHANGA ARENA Corteo, the most enchanting arena production from Cirque du Soleil, is back in North America and heading to San Diego. This unique production, directed by Daniele Finzi Pasca, is a joyous procession, a festive parade imagined by a clown. The show brings together the passion of the actor with the grace and power of the acrobat to plunge the audience into a theatrical world of fun, comedy, and spontaneity situated in a mysterious space between heaven and earth. In a Cirque du Soleil first, the stage is central in the arena and divides the venue, with each half of the audience facing the other half, giving a unique perspective not only of the show, but also a performer's eye view of the audience. cirquedusoleil.com/corteo ArtWalk Carlsbad SEPTEMBER 9-10 | ARMADA DRIVE Located on Armada Drive above the Flower Fields, ArtWalk Carlsbad is back for its fourth year, bringing fine art, live music, and interactive art experiences.
