Dubai-based developer Nakheel has announced that Palm Jumeirah will host Cirque du Soleil's world famous touring show 'Alegria' in Spring 2009 as a prelude to the permanent show which is due to open on the island in Summer 2011. In May 2007, the two organizations signed a 15-year deal to jointly design and build a 1,800-seat theatre that will be home to the first ever Cirque resident show to be staged outside of the USA and Japan. The permanent show will be housed in Palm Mall on the Palm Jumeirah, Nakheel announced at the Arabian Travel Market 2008. The announcement, made at Arabian Travel Market 2008, comes one year after Nakheel and Cirque du Soleil announced a major partnership to develop a permanent show on Palm Jumeirah.
