'''Cirque Du CFL 3''' was a ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' [[major]] held in Orlando, [[Florida]], from March 9th-10th, 2024.

==Tournament summary==
The biggest upset in pools was on #3 seed {{Sm|Light|p=Connecticut}}, who was upset early on in bracket by #67 seed {{Sm|AppleWiz}} 3-0 (upset factor 10). Outside of Light, most of the other top 8 seeds went through the first day and top 64 unscathed aside from #5 seed {{Sm|Kola}}, who was upset 2-3 by #37 seed {{Sm|JMafia}} (upset factor 5). Top 32 saw #4 seed {{Sm|Shuton}} lose 2-3 to #13 seed {{Sm|MuteAce}}; he ultimately faced and defeated Light in Losers 3-0, knocking the {{Trn|Litvitational 2}} winner out at 17th. In addition, Kola lost to #21 seed {{Sm|Anathema}} to place 25th. Finally, #7 seed {{Sm|SHADIC}} defeated #2 seed {{Sm|Miya|p=Honshu}} 3-1, winning the runback from Litvitational 2, while in top 8 winner's side, #1 seed {{Sm|Zomba}} was defeated by MuteAce (upset factor 7); all these upsets and defeats left Winners' Final devoid of a previous ''Ultimate'' major winner.

Top 32 saw a Cinderella run from #30 seed {{Sm|Peabnut}}, who after losing to {{Sm|Dabuz}} 0-3 in Winner's bracket, eliminated Shuton 3-0 (upset factor 6), Miya 3-2 (upset factor 7), and Zomba 3-0 (upset factor 8) before being denied the runback from Dabuz 2-3 to place 4th, Peabnut's best run at a major as well as the best {{SSBU|Mega Man}} performance in the post-online metagame. In addition, Peabnut eliminated the last three remaining players who had won an ''Ultimate'' major, and as such the tournament was guaranteed a new ''Ultimate'' major winner. This major winner ultimately came down to a fight between [[Texas]] players SHADIC and MuteAce, with SHADIC winning their match in Winners' Finals and MuteAce eliminating Dabuz 3-2 in Losers' Finals. In Grand Finals, MuteAce was able to reset the bracket 3-1, but the second set was significantly more difficult, ultimately going to game 5. However, an unfortunate SD from MuteAce on his second stock seemed to have sealed the deal, and SHADIC won the final game, becoming the first solo-{{SSBU|Corrin}} player to win a major.
