The national carrier has been flying Cirque du Soleil's employees and artists to shows in many destinations around the world since January 2020.

The extension means that Air Canada will continue as the official airline for Big Top and Arena shows in Canada, the U.S., Europe and Australia through December 2024.

The multi-year agreement includes brand inclusion in Cirque du Soleil's communications campaigns, on-site visibility and promotional privileges, in addition to a robust hospitality package across all territories.
