The National Harbor has landed another high-profile attraction.
Cirque du Soleil plans to bring a show to the waterfront development beginning October 30. The Montreal-based circus is known for its elaborate acrobatics.
Officials say the show will stay for several weeks, but many details have yet to be worked out - including where in the 300-acre development the circus will perform.
Other attractions at the National Harbor include the "The Awakening" sculpture, which gives the appearance of a giant coming out of the ground, and the not-yet-built National Children's Museum.
The National Harbor is on the banks of the Potomac River in Prince George's County.
