Ballet is one of those dances that leaves us perplexed with every step. Pliés, pirouettes, and arabesques now shine with their own light to the rhythm of Tchaikovsky’s timeless work with Ballet of Lights in Monterrey. An impressive show in which the dancers’ costumes are covered with lights, turning each step into a flash of light.
And the Teatro Versalles is the venue chosen to experience this unique event, perfect for telling the timeless story of Sleeping Beauty. We recommend that you book your tickets in advance if you don’t want to miss this show, which will take place on a few select dates.
What is Ballet of Lights?

On the stage of the Versailles Theater, experience a dance and light show and enjoy a shortened version of Tchaikovsky’s iconic work.
Ballet, its narrative, and the show
