La Perle had grand production values, stunning , I would say better production values than cirque de soleil though the actual acrobatics were grander there. Net net we all loved the show . We had first row seats and that added to the experience and the ability to book the seats seamlessly on the app from home was awesome.

Outstanding show!! We loved it! The venue is incredible and our seats were perfect!! (We opted for Gold, though there isn't a bad seat in the house.) The story is wonderful and the performance was amazing. The acrobatics were completely over the top!! We highly recommend it.

Scary stuff. After seeing 6 or 7 cirque de Solei shows, i was concerned by the safety of the acrobats. Excellent show!

This was a lovely way to spend an evening. Staff was attentive and responded to our every need including finding us a table inside on a chilly evening. Food was good. Ambience including saxophone and sights was memorable. The show, similar to Cirque du Soleil, with a water twist was stunning. We did feel a little rushed getting off which might have been helped with a little clearer communication but overall would recommend this package for a memorable evening in Dubai.

All about La Perle by Dragone in Dubai

La Perle is Dubai’s first permanent aqua-theatre show, created by legendary director Franco Dragone. Each night, the stage becomes a world where water, gravity, and light merge in spectacular motion.

  • Performers: 65 artists from 20+ countries, including divers, aerialists, and motorbike stunt riders who perform just meters from the audience.
  • Stage magic: The custom Al Habtoor City theatre holds 2.7 million litres of water, flooding and draining in seconds for seamless aquatic and aerial transitions.
  • Technology: Advanced projections, surround sound, and concealed rigging create total immersion from every 270° seat.
  • Theme: Inspired by the UAE’s pearl-diving heritage, the story follows a young girl’s dreamlike journey through water and sky, a tribute to Dubai’s spirit of innovation.

Act 1: The portal

As the lights fade, the stage floods, and a young girl appears at the center. The first sequences set the tone: divers drop from 20-plus meters, performers rise from the pool below, and the sound system fills the theatre. Within minutes, you realize there’s no barrier between you and the action; every movement happens in view from every seat.

Act 2: Water & air

The pace accelerates. The stage drains, motorcycles enter the steel globe, and aerialists glide across ribbons above the water. You’ll see back-to-back feats: human pyramids, mid-air somersaults, and precise dives. Lighting and sound change constantly to match the rhythm, keeping your attention locked on the center stage. It’s the most physical part of the show, built for adrenaline.

Act 3: Heritage & futurism

This act shifts from spectacle to storytelling. Visuals of desert, wind, and pearls project onto the stage, then transform into futuristic skylines and neon shapes. The choreography mixes slow, synchronized group movement with large-scale stage effects, showing the link between Dubai’s traditions and its forward-looking energy. It’s the quietest section, giving you a moment to take in the artistry before the finale.

Act 4: The finale

The show closes with a full-scale production: water returns, acrobats swing across the theatre, and motorbikes circle inside the globe at high speed. Projections flood the space, creating a continuous visual field from floor to ceiling. The finale blends every effect into a single sequence that ends in a precise blackout. The applause begins before the lights return.
