    Pyramid of Fun

    Cirque du Soleil founder selects Arlington for U.S. premiere of new extravaganza

    Arlington is about to be home — for a little while, at least — to a new tech-focused entertainment venue imagined by Guy Laliberté, a co-founder of Cirque Du Soleil.

    Called PY1, the 81-foot-tall pyramid-shaped structure set up at Globe Life Park on New Year's Eve 2019 and will stay through the end of February 2020 before continuing on its tour. It had previously played Montreal, Canada, during the summer of 2019 before heading to Arlington for its U.S. premiere.

    Put on by Lune Rouge Entertainment, PY1 offers two shows: Through the Echoes and Stella — The Time Machine Journey.

    Through the Echoes is the first custom multimedia production for the pyramid that's suitable for guests 12 and up. Featuring lasers, 360-degree projections, kinetic stage elements, special effects, and grandiose lightscapes, this one of-a-kind multimedia show transports you on technological odyssey through space and time.

    Stella – The Time Machine Journey is a new show for the entire family (ages 5 and up), and is a participatory multimedia show that encourages kids and their families to move and dance in the biggest time machine ever built.

    Tickets for both shows and the themed nights are currently available on Ticketmaster, with corporate and group pricing available.

    PY1 Nights has six themed nightlife experiences enhanced by lasers, projections, special effects, spectacular lighting, and the sounds of local and internationally known DJs who will help turn the pyramid into a giant dance floor.

    Guests are encouraged to dress up according to the theme, which can be anything from a "kaleidoscope of psychedelia" called Candy World to "a radioactive party for the apocalypse survivors" called Underworld. All attendees of these themed events must be 21 and up.

    CultureMap readers can score an extra 20 percent off both peak and non-peak performances of all Through the Echoes shows by using the 20PY1online, over the phone, or at the box office.

    Through the Echoes is a multimedia show with lasers, projections, special effects, and more.

    Dallas to terminate agreement with management of Fair Park

    The City of Dallas has issued a notice of termination to Fair Park First, the nonprofit entity that has been managing Fair Park under a long-term agreement. According to a release, the termination is effective in 90 days.

    The action also brings to a close the subcontracting relationship between Fair Park First and OVG360, which has provided venue and facilities management services and has overseen daily operations at Fair Park since 2019.

    City leaders said the move is needed because the organizational structure under the existing contract is flawed and lacks a direct relationship between OVG360 and the city.

    “Fair Park is a vital part of our city’s cultural and historic identity,” said Dallas City Manager Kimberly Bizor Tolbert. “This decision reflects our commitment to ensuring sound stewardship and transparent management of this beloved public asset."

    Since assuming management in January 2019, Fair Park First has been responsible for overseeing the park's year-round programming, facility operations, and maintenance.

    As the city transitions to a new management structure, Dallas Park and Recreation staff will step in to ensure continuity of operations for park tenants, campus partners, and upcoming events.

    Dallas Park and Recreation Department director John D. Jenkins said in a statement that the termination gives the city a chance for a reset.

    “This step enables us to reset our approach to Fair Park management and is in the best interest of Fair Park, patrons, and the taxpayers of Dallas,” Jenkins said.

    Their goal is to develop a new plan that is "financially sustainable, vibrant, welcoming, and inclusive … so that Dallas residents will be able to enjoy the park year-round," Jenkins said.

    "The new plan will involve Dallas Park and Recreation managing the daily operations and maintenance, partnering with a non-profit to deliver third party funding opportunities, continuing the relationship with existing campus partners and bringing in new companies with expertise with producing large and small events and programs."

    During the transition, Dallas Park and Recreation staff will be onsite at Fair Park to provide a transition of operations for the park’s existing campus partners, vendors, and events.

    Dallas Park and Recreation will honor all existing contracts for upcoming park events.
