Cirque du Soleil's performance lasted a mere 45 minutes but the circus troupe spent months of planning and hundreds of hours of practicing to perfect the program. 76 music artists and bands, acrobats, clowns and dancers were added in for the event. Other highlights include huge projection screens spanning the length of an entire football field as well as a 40-foot logo of the Xbox.
